Looks like I need to take it apart tonight and verify the updated manual on the LS2P matches what was done. When I found the pin slipped out I just temporarily pushed it back in. In the exploded view of the supplemental manual they show the pin has a notch in it and the set screw goes in at the end of the barrel. These are new CV part numbers and appear to be somewhat different from the old part number as they had a set screw going in on th end of the CV to capture the cross pin in the middle for the 17mm hubs.

Many of the new part numbers aren't available for ordering yet so I'm hoping I don't do too much more damage until they are out there.

Lower left of page 3 shows the exploded view of the CV. http://www.hbeurope.com/manuals/66786.pdf

Do you have any problems with the mm overheating with that fan on it?
I may need to order more diff fluid then. I only ordered up to 30K at the hobby shop. I considered going with trakpowers but a offer came up for 2 neu batteries for a good price and I went for it.

So far I have not had any problems with the MM or 8XL overheating but I might not have pushed it as hard as you yet. Temps were around 120 after about 10 minutes of running (not on a track) just to get a feel for it. It's geared for about 38mph so I'm hoping it will stay under control. Timing is set to low and punch control is medium if I remember correctly.
