RE: Custom 1/5 with .18 Homemade!
I drilled holes to attach the evader chassis to the 1/5 chassis then drilled holes to attach everything else like the front arms and suspension then I kicked in a used .18 40,000 rpm engine from Yeah racing. Then just hooked everything toghether and the steering works great and all servos work good. I put a bigger clutch bell on i think a 17t and a 68t spur gear. Thanks for your comment Im hoping to get it running by tuesday.

Take it easy for the first few runs. That tranny doesn't look like it can hold up to 1/4hp. What are you going to do with all that spare room? 
What is the final drive gear ratio? and tire diameter?

RE: Custom 1/5 with .18 Homemade!
Ok guys I am going to try to order aluminum tranny gears today for it thats if I can find it. I am also running on 13t clutch bell since yesterday and a 68t plastic spur. I a going to upgrade all of the gears to aluminum and probubly either take the .32 axial engine out of my savage and stick it in there or get a gx-27 from my warhead in there. I dont know what I am going to do with all the extra room in it because Its so big!! I am also still trying to find a body for it. I might buy Technokit 1/5 body for it off ebay. Well theres only been a little progress since yesterday and I am hoping to get more in today. I got a new camera and I am going to video tape it running for the first time maybe sometime this week or next week hopefully. Thanks for the comments you guys I really appreciate it.
