Exactly what I needed to know!! No spur gear needed in the conversion. I don't know what it is with this Revo. 3 clutches after taking it out of the box and still trouble.

All this stuff isn't oil and will be hard to remove

No drive train problems or over gearing either. No real know cause of all this wear.


Did you run into any issues of the holes not being right in line and having the transmission slightly twisted? Bad for your spur gears.

There are a lot of different spring rates sold for 1/8 buggies all of which will fit the Savage setup. Higher stall, or lower. Any hobby shop shouldl have them. 1.0 is pretty much a medium spring. A 1.1 is much stiffer causing a big increase in RPMs before engagement. The Savage springs are probably lighter than a 1.0. I would think a 1.0 would be what you need. You may need to experiment until you get it right were you need it.
