My setup at the moment is MM with 8xl 16t pinion and 47t metal spur with FLM BL kit for the savage all running on 40 series beadlocks and 4s of maxamps 5000mah. It performs very well with more power and speed than the nitro engine it had, but i am a balls to the walls guy so i am working on a MMM, Neu 1521 and 6s of Neu Energy.
Thank you.
I like balls to the wall myself as long as it is usable power. My 18b is completely stupid with power. Such that my stepsons stock AE18b will run right with it until the long straights and even then keeps up due to mine looses traction if the wind hits the throttle trigger.....like runnin it on ice. I digress. Sorry.
Can you explain, please, what difference this Neu 1521 will make over your current set-up?
I am curious to know if any of you have experienced tranny problems with all these high rpms and more than 5 times the power of stock? I predict having problems with the slipper clutch and the plastic case being able to hold the torque and any added heat.
