The new emaxx diff's are revo spec, but they are upgraded and better than the revo diff's (you can drop these in for upgrades to any revo). I will actually be swapping out the revo diff's as well, not sure if I noted that anywhere.

Your question looking at the stock revo 3.3 vs the stock emaxx 3906 tranny would be a good one.. because you have to upgrade it as well; alum idler 2nd gear mod or gorillamax mod. The nice part about it is you can have dual battery setups with the motors on center.. but I wouldn't change to a 3906 emaxx tranny, I would just mod the revo and use the stock tranny if my choice was 3906 tranny vs revo tranny. That is just me.. some still did that mod as well.
quick question.
i would like to buy 2 3905 diffs for my revo project but in the description it says they will not fit a revo?!?!?!?
