Just post up the link. Since it's a technical question and not an advertisment im sure the mods won't mind. Usually you don't put liths on the bottom of your car anyway... I've only seen them resting on top of the chasis or sometimes attached in front the the rear clip on the underside of the body.

ZX9RBART: a link would be fine

this is the website page i just dont know where else i would put them and i dont want to get li poly. i saw jdr's tutorial on how to install these but you have to desolder the servo wires and pretty much cut up your chassis so i would like to find another way to mount them.

I actually just bought a set of these to go in my gen1 Honda Civic - just so you are aware they will not fit an Evo Mustang you would need something like this:

Once you remove the stock tray the fit is perfect! Look at atomicmods.com for the tutorial.

ok but arent these really only for motor that have less then 25 turns and also i've read that these need some modification to your board so you can run these and not blow anything

Hmm I dont believe that to be the case - my Evo has a stock board and a custom motor, the motor runs about 65,000 RPM but of the top of my head I do not know how many turns it has!

The Liths I recommended run 7.2 volts and I believe that at max an evo board can handle 8.4 volts, which would mean these liths are fine for an evo chassis.

Maybe someone else can cofirm this??

Thanks.
