    Savage X upgrading to 5.9 (or other)

    So my poor old 4.6 is tired. Thinking it's time to upgrade to something with a little more bang. Would a 5.9 be able to utilize all of the Savage X drivetrain components? Would the three speed transmission I have be able to hold? And the differentials? Also, what other motors would you...

    need a hand

    Maybe not a differential. Maybe the clutch bell is hitting on your spur gear. I had the same problem. It would only catch the spur gear when I was pushing the truck backwards. Check it out maybe?

    Traxxas link?

    Good to know. But I have a failsafe on my savy and will always put one on my future trucks so that's not a problem either. Looks like I'm going with this setup.

    what are the signs my one way bearing is going out?l

    What he said. My OWB is dying right now and I can crank on it all day with the roto start and it will only hit every now and then. I usually get lucky and it grabs long enough to start the savy. My motor is completely torn down right now. I was just gonna pull the cover plate off the OWB and...

    1/2 tank lean

    HTL is a problem you can't avoid in the stock tank setup I believe. The fuel level goes below the throttle body and gravity no longer helps supply fuel. You need to tune the HSN right with less than half a tank. It will run a little rich when full but won't die when you run it down.

    Any way to quiet a nitro?

    They come with a silencer that helps a little. It's still pretty loud, but it's tolerable. I have also heard about steel wool. But I haven't tried it myself. I don't see why it would be a problem. Just a little more resistance.
