The Integy 3 shoe aluminum clutches are actually good clutches to use. That's what I'm running on my Savage now. Don't forget you have to break-in a new engine properly.

yea def, can u send me a link or something for a proper break in, or is it the same as how the hpi manual is? i want this engine to be perfect

I would get an m2c 4 shoe clutch. The Integy will work, but their aluminum will glaze over fairly quick.

Heat cycling is the only method I use to break in a motor... http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y116/ImBroken8/breakin.jpg

I know it is suprising but as Racer said the Integy clutches are not that bad. About every half gallon to gallon I pull off the clutch bell and flie the lip off of them and sand the inside of the bell lightly. Doing that I never have any problems out of them.

The engine will come with instructions on how to break it in and tune it. I will also tell what temp range to keep it in during break in. Do you have a temp gun? If not it's a wise investment. The XL already comes with a 3 shoe aluminum clutch.
