The castle motors are very nice and work very well - I don't think you will be dissapointed.

If I can get my 1515 2.5DFI intend to install one of mine on it...

Thanks guys, so it's the combo then. At first just worried about the kv ratings, but I believe you guys, that it is a fine system..

Just quick Q. Can I get more speed with that mmm combo, without turning the electrics into Sauna? Now Briang's calculator shows 38mph with setup what im running..

Differential Ratio: 2.8461538461538463
Transmission Ratio: 1.7222222222222223
Other Ratio: 1
Spur Tooth Count: 51
Pinion Tooth Count: 16
Total Voltage: 19.8
Motor KV: 1853
Tire Diameter (inches): 5.7
Tire Ballooning (inches): 0
Motor Current Draw: 0
Motor coil Ω: 0.0092
Spur/Pinion Ratio: 3.19 : 1
Total Ratio: 15.6242 : 1
Tire Circumference (inches): 17.91 inches (454.84 mm)
Total Motor Speed: 36689.4 RPM
Vehicle Speed: 39.82 mph (63.96 km/h)
Estimated Adjusted Speed: 38 mph (61 km/h) - 5% loss
Effective KV Value: 1853
KT constant: 0.73 oz-in/A


This what I had in mind.. 55mph, 50mph would satisfy as well

Differential Ratio: 2.8461538461538463
Transmission Ratio: 1.7222222222222223
Additional Ratio: 1
Spur Tooth Count: 51

i think you might need to gear down a bit and invest in hybrid diffs... You didn't add any tire ballooning so you would be going faster still - Not sure about a 18.6T pinion though...

Elecs would be fine for some speed runs I'm sure.

Wow that was quick! Hmmm.. have to think about the diffs, just that those what im running are almost brand new. I should have bought the hybrids in the first place though.. But thanks, have to re-calculate with the ballooning thing..

Haha, sure

Yea, had to move the esc's place because of the swaybars. Applied Arct1c's advice, much better place now anyways. Thanks to him

Final pictures, she is ready now.
