If you have the 2-shoe clutch adapter, you are fine using those clutch bells in the links you provided. The 2 shoe adapter looks like this HERE:

If you have the 3 shoe clutch adapter, than you need larger 1/8th scale clutch bells like ones that came with the RC8 kit originally. The 3 shoe adapter looks like this HERE:

Actually, Jato clutch bells are mod0.8 (32pitch), while Revo clutch bells are mod1. This means Jato gears won't mesh with your RC8, which uses mod1 gears.

Those clutch bells you linked won't work with the RC8.

Please teach me.
I look for 22T 24T in mod1 cluth bell of the REVO size.

whats the reason for gearing it so high???

masense 03.11.2009 03:58 AM

more speed^^
Because it is MGM16024, I am possible for 8s.
However, I am too heavy in RC8.
It is a wise policy to put up a thing of a pinion.

Thanks Metal Man.

I missed that one. I am not super familiar with Traxxas products.

Mod 1 pitch is much different than 32 pitch (MOD 0.8).

I don't know anybody with gears that large for the 2 shoe clutch. You might look for a smaller spur gear.

If you plan on gearing that high then I don't think you'll be able to find a clutch bell with that many teeth nor would I recommend using it if you did find one. You might be able to have a custom one done by Mike or RRP but that's not cheap and again, for a clutch, that's just too tall of a ratio.
I'd recomend going with one of Mike's pinions, like these. They go all the way up to 25T. I'm assuming your doing speed runs because a 1700kv motor on 6s is already fast geared normally, you're proposed setup is, well, a speed run setup.

thank you...
yes 44/20T very fast.
i want 22-24T
tekno Long Shank Pinion to 17T.
The pinion of MIKE is short.
i look for a smaller spur gear.
Will you teach SPUR of 42T / 40T which is usable in rc8?
