my downward spiral has just started……

[ph2t]

see, that’s just too much….

[ph2t]

What can I say, I like to tempt fate…..

[ph2t]

cheers,

A smallish cap (~600-1000uF) on the battery inputs
often helps to avoid radio glitching if you’ve
put in a hotter motor.

Definately need one of these, when i gun the throttle, the car can do funny things.

Surely the ceramic caps on the motor end are for that purpose? High value caps (>1uF) will only filter out low freq noise.

4.2s have torque, yes. BUT the 3.8’s have MORE torque. Once the racing surface becomes rough, the motor with the higher torque will in the end have a higher top speed. The assumption here is that the two motors have similar RPM’s, ie: a 3.8 and a 4.2.

In the end it’s down to cause and effect, just do it and see what happens….:approve:

a perfection 3.8 is generally better than the 4.2/4.2PRO.

Only on smooth surfaces like polished floors will a 4.2 run faster than a 3.8. 9 times out of 10 though the 3.8 is the better motor.

The 3.8 perfection is one of the best motors out there. It’s as if Perfection use different OEM’s for their motors. ie: the 3.0 and 3.5 are crap motors, the 4.2 & 4.2PRO aren’t too bad but none of them stand up to the torque of the perfection 3.8.

go figure…..
