Revo aluminum engine mount - 10-31-2005, 05:54 PM

For those of you with aluminum mounts. Which one do you have, how much was it, and how do you like it?

I'm in the market for one and getting some feedback. Thanks.

Get the 3racing billet unit. It's adjustable for/aft and it doesn't break like the stocker. Comes in several colors also.

IF you decide to go with the traxxas big block kit (which you can use with a SB/1-8th clutch) then it's like $35 BIN on ebay, or $50 at the hobby shops. Comes with a forward only kit too, so you would have spare tranny gears.

This will also allow you to drop a big block in when/if that day comes.

A SB with stock clutch WILL NOT fit the traxxas BB kit. Again, only a SB with a 1/8th scale clutch mounted. With that setup you would use the "mid-block" holes on the mount.

The mount comes with holes for mid blocks AND BB's

yes, just use the "mid-block" mounting options.

I should edit in that I am fairly confident I could get it to fit good. Modding may be needed, the average RC enthusiest should have no problem with whatever may need to be done. Basically:
you should be alright but be prepped to mod if needed. I've never did what I'm telling you will fit, but that's what a dremel is for
