I am doing the e-revo with the stock 3.3 chassis. I am over the machine shop at my plant so I too have easy access to everything needed. When using the stock chassis you need to cut away some material to allow the e-maxx tranny to fit and drill some more mounting holes. As far as the battery trays I have cut out part of the motor mount and am machining out some trays to mount onto the side tabs which I have bent down.

The only problem I am having is finding time in the machine shop to get everything done but besides that it is pretty cut and dry.

I plan on working on the driveshafts this weekend and figuring out what I need but will probably just end up getting some custom shafts made by rcalloys.com.

Once everything is together I will run with the titans/Super Duty XR to get everything worked out suspension and driving wise until the Mamba Monster Max comes out at which point I will switch to the Gorilla single speed tranny and add the steel idler gear.

Hopefully with some luck I will have evrything running in the next two weeks.
