as far as the rear brake settup, are you puting in a center diff? if so, thats gona be sweet..

The rear brake conversion requires the center diff. The 3.3 is not really a big block. It is considered a "mid block." It will, however, give better performance than the stock 2.5r that came in your Revo.

sounds great man. I'm hoping up me revo slowly to get it ready for a nice os 18 conversion. would love to get a picco .26 but from what I've heard it makes it totally uncontrollable and i heard that the os 18 is better for racing applications, still confused of why the the os 18 cost almost 80 bucks for from the picco.26. i thought it would be more

i agree with you matty. the 21 isnt really a great choice, specially if your racing.. its way outa control, and eben that extra mm on the chassis wont keep the front end down.. but thats were the center diff will help you..alittle..just my opinion.. i wana see pics too!! i miss her...sad..
