gearing that is going in my truck

[MaxiMumST.2002]

this truk has a picco p15 side exhaust engine and the truck is a maximum st made by duratrax i have not received the engine yet but do u think it will tear up the stock transmission if so tell me what i will nedd to make the truck stronger.

I have no experience with the maximum st. If all the gears fit and mesh up properly the math will do the rest. As far as tearing up the transmission, thats what they make slippers for.

I just have a few questions.

If you are able to get those speeds from your truck, how are you going to control it?

What useful purpose will it have other than saying it can go fast?

Why?

what does this mean the back of the engine to the drive washer is 56.1 mm what the heck does that mean does it matter if it is longer or shorter ? and if it does matter will it still fit on my truck ?




thanks- nick

You've been making alot of seperate posts on similar subjects...

That gearing looks rather high, the engine will strugle off the bottom end, a 15 tooth sounds more realistic for a .15.

Is the Picco engine you're getting a non-pullstart? That could be why it's shorter, the original motor you have (Torq 12) has a pullstart, yes? What type of crankshaft did you get on it?

The Picco engines I have are both rear exhaust nonpull, not sure how good the side exhaust version is other than I know some of them can be hard to tune.
