The HBI aluminium version is in the pipeline. I've called it the HBI Dino because the profile looks like Fred Flintstone's dog!
The outline specification is as follows:
• Material Aluminium 6082 (fantastic heat sink)
• 13:1 to 6.1:1 with 80t spur
• 9.88:1 to 5.2:1 with 76t spur
• Configured for shorty battery in forward position
• Waterfall fully forward and connected to C-Plate, a carbon chassis stiffener in battery bay
• Rear Shock Tower Mount incorporated into gearbox casing (thanks to Mike Best for idea) No need for £50 of Rear Shock Tower Mount.
• Quick access to swap diff without dismantling half the car
• Can be mounted directly to original HBI T-Plate for TC02C and retains anti-squat adjustment
• Can be mounted to HBI TC02C-Evo T-Plate after modification. (Free modification for anyone who returns their T-Plate when purchasing the Dino) Anti-squat adjustment is retained
Currently this is a four gear box but a three gear version will be hot on its heels.
I shall soon take advanced orders and I'm aiming to keep the price below £60.
I shall be making my own motor plate to go with it.
