| RC4WD V8 in a SCX10???
Ok, I did try to search for this before asking but here it goes: I am considering getting one of the SCX10 JK kits and would like to know if anyone has put one of these guys in any scx10 so far. If so can you post a link to your build? Thanks in advance, RC4WD V8 |

That is pretty wild! I dont think you will find anyone who would have done that mod. You should definitely be the first to pull it off. In the world of RC's, anything is possible!

I am sure it would fit. If it is not a direct bolt on, then I am sure a couple of quick mods will make it fit just fine. My friend Fletch24 made these custom plates with velcro so he doesnt have to keep using pins to hold his shell on. It is pretty genius and works great!

Thanks for the input. I think I will put it on the back burner for a while though. While looking into this one and adding up the price of the build I was reminding that I have a few other projects to work on.

Thanks for the input Mike, I haven't thought of how big it might look in the body. I was just taking for granted it would look like a big block. Truckbob: since you have ran this thing in a couple of setups, did you have any issues with heat build up? I doesn't seem to allow for any airflow. Does it being aluminum really act as that good of a heat sink (sp?)? |

Not to be rude, but I will not be doing one anytime soon. There are some good links above though.
