    Did I fry my engine?

    Another question is how hot does a bell gear get? Mine seems to get rather hot, and I'm wondering if it would melt the plastic spur gear? I know the clutch shoes work on friction with the bell gear, so some heat would happen.

    Questions About Mid-Tanks

    Why A Mid Tank When I first got my savage X and looked at this site, I thought I would never do a mid tank. I have done the Cen / Mugen midtank and love it!

    Loctite Is Our Friend

    I know before the mid tank I would only tune with less than half a tank, it's nice that I can have a more consistent tune / power on tap. I do also have a good hex set, I didn't check much out of the box, which was my mistake.

    Loctite Is Our Friend

    Hey all, so I just finished my mid tank build , and ran it at my local track (First Time Off Road) and everything went fine except some screws came loose.
