I wonder if it would be possible to put a Rustler 48p spur and pinion on the revo somehow? Then I could be geared 15/86. No problem for the mamba 4600 then...

i have read that if you put some thin washers under the trans. you can get the jato spurs in there, i dont know if there is anough adjustment though, but for $3 a gear its worth a shot

(54,56,58 tooth gears, 32 pitch)

The xl5 rustler gears will fit on the revo slipper, but I do not know if they will be too large in diameter and contact with the chassis, etc. Not sure if 48p will hold up, the mesh will have to be spot on, and no dirt or sand can come in contact with it. I would try the jato spurs and 32p pinions, like the emaxx pinions. A 54/12 or 58/13 would give the same ratio as the 9/40 and not require any bore reducers as the emaxx pinions are 1/8 bore. The 32p will hold up much better than 48p too.

So 0.8p metric is exactly the same as 32 pitch? The Jato gears idea sounds good.

On the other Revo, would a 6xl on a Traxxas VXL ESC powered by two 3s lipo packs in parallel be any good in terms of power and heat?
I would think the VXL would be able to handle the amps being rated at 200 amps constant.
The other possible set-up would be dual Velineon systems each powered by a 3s on an E-maxx trannsmission, which would cost more but it would most likey run cooler and faster.

Just got the Revo 3.3 today...wow it's pretty freakin' sweet. Don't have any gears for it, so does anyone know for sure if 32 pitch emaxx gears will mesh with a Jato spur?? Please respond quickly, I really want to get this thing running.
