griffin, that's indeed the part that blew. I called S&T earlier today, but got voicemail. I'm going to give them a call on Monday, and see if I can get someone that can tell me exactly what that component is. That should help settle the debate.
I don't have knowledge in this type of stuff as far as what kind of cap it is, or what it's ratings are.. When I need to know the facts, I ask for help haha. So we'll see what S&T says about it on Monday.
I got my body painted finally, and am about to go out to the garage to make a fan bracket for the controller/heatsink.. Then, I think everything will be completely done. I got some 1/4" acrylic, and cut them the same size as the battery, with holes for the screws and nuts to fit in, so they don't poke my batteries. and replaced my rear hub, as well as the 44t diff gear with a new 46 gear. I don't have a camera or video camera, but am still planning on racing tommorow. Last time, everything went fine, for 5min heats.. and this time, I geared up by changing the diff gear, and adding the fans will help. I know you all probably think I'm an idiot for running it w/ out replacing that component, but if it ran fine for 5min heats while it was blown last weekend, I don't see why it will have any problems this weekend, w/ the changes I've made to the truck. I don't like downtime. I'm not going to run for 30min, or run in grass, so I think I'll be ok this weekend. I'll keep you guys informed.
