D8 conversion kit

[georgec]

Just thought I would show the latest on my ever changing D8. I have been looking long and hard for a motor mount that was easier to change motors and set gear mesh and the only thing I could find was made by a small one man operation that only makes his product when and if he feels like it. That is until I stumbled across the Kyosho Inferno VE and found that the VE motor mount is almost a direct fit to my D8 (with no help from the Kyosho guys) anyway the VE mount fit the bill nicely. I also didn’t want to spend 75 to 100 bucks for a motor mount like the custom made item or even the Kyosho mount, so I turned to the pull apart guys on ebay and found the entire center diff/motor mount for the VE there for $39.99 with screws and all! Here’s a couple of pics of the motor mount installed in my D8 with the slipperential in it.
