i am thinking about getting an os cv-r for my losi xxx nt so that i can beat my friends xxxnt :winnar:. I found a great deal on ebay but, it is not a pullstart. I was wondering what does it take to convert a non pullstart engine to pullstart? Do you just have to buy the back plate and the pullstart, or do you have to buy a new crank shaft? Also, is there anything less expensive i could so that i could beat my friends truck? We both have the losi xxxnt sport. Both are bone stock. I take his in excelleration, but his beats mine by around 1 to 1 1/2 seconds in a drag race in top end. Could someone also tell me what pitch the losi takes for spur gear, and how many teeth the stock spur is? I am probly going to go up a couple teeth to see if that helps before i buy a brand new engine.
oh yea, i am probly going to get a new pipe before i get an engine and see how that works out also, what do you suggest that would give me better top end with out sacraficing low end exceleration? I was thinking about the mip stinger, the cvec, or the adam drake tuned pipe. Anyone have any experience with any of these? would the performance increase be noticiable, i am not talking night and day here, but would an average basher like like me be able to see a small ammount of top end and throttle response in one of these pipes compared to the stock pipe? Thanks, and sorry for the long post!!
