| Big difference between pro4 and 13,5t?
I need to upgrade to 32p gears and maybe from a redline 13,5t to a pro4 3300. Since my rig is a bit on the heavy side and I need more torque. Is there a big difference?

The top speed is very close (depending on gearing) but the biggest advantage running the pro4 is the huge amounts of torque you get!!! Can do standing wheelies with the pro4 not so much with a 13.5.

Huge difference. A pro4 is a scaled down t8 apparently. The Redline motors are 2pole as well.

Pro4 motor is a 4-pole motor, 13.5 is a 2 pole. MUCH more torque. The pro4 motors were designed for the short course 4x4 trucks that were destroying motors and need huge torque to get the 6+ lb trucks moving. Perfect combo for a wraith. Really though, any of the 4-pole motors that will fit in the wraith chassis will make these things fly. |

Thinking I may do a RX8 and SC4x 4.5T or 5.5T as I have one of each rolling around in the toolbox. Will it fit a 550 can okay? (Picking up a NIB kit version from a guy off of Craigslist this afternoon.)

There are a few guys locally that run the T8 motors. they had to trim the interiors floor pan to get it in there. IMO its not a big trimming either. When i ran the stock interior in my rig.. i trimmed it with the Pro4. not that it was needed... just for better heat shed. Long post for a yes. GO FOR IT | |

The pro4 on 3s almost looks like 13.5t redline on 4s. Maybe alittle less power, but close.

Well I know my 13.5 on 4s is almost uncontrollable on 4s. It needs sway bars and more tuning but it was fun. Defiantly no wheelies though. |
