I'm not quite sure you mean by offsetting the tranny, as it entirely spans the TVPs and also serves as a brace. Two notches are cut in the TVPs for two nubs on the side of the trans case to rest on the TVP notches for support. Its pretty much locked in place.

Note, I'm not saying its not possible, just care has to be taken in gear and motor selection, and some planning in the mounting the motor mount so it sits low vs the tranny so more lateral movement is possible. I don't think anything larger than a 15 series can be used w/ the tranny and have any hope of fitting inside the TVPs.
Mike's new universal CD mount would work great on this app, and just ditch the heavy ass tranny all together.
This is where I'm at a disadvantage because I've never owned a Savy, So I'm stabbing in the dark with my ideas.

Do you have any idea of the FDR needed on a 5T Flux?
Well I pretty much agree w/the wifey. I'm just being repsectfull sir.

Sorry FDR ?? I'm a little slow sometimes.


I retired from RC, now life is all about guns and long range shooting.
