I just bought a team orion big block today and well I broke my stock gears :D Should everything in the gearbox be replaced with the orion metal pinions? Anyone have any idea how much this will cost? btw that motor hauls!

Wow..sorry to hear that...I've been bashing with a Rabid chihuahua since the Mini-T came out and haven't broken any gears...maybe your mesh was off

How were you able to screw in the pinnion to the big block?? Mine wont quit screw in all the way.. So for the moment I have not screw it to the motor rod(if that's what it's called). It fits pretty tight, but that doesnt necaaritly mean it will stay tight while running...

I'm not really sure, when I bought the motor the guy at the hobby shop put it in. Next time I have my car apart I'll take a pic of it. Here's what I did to my car today:

just CA glue it back and let it cure overnight... i did the same thing with mine showing off... hit a wall just right (or is it wrong)... and the knuckle snapped right there...

actuall the CA makes the knuckle stronger than originally...02

just make sure u use it sparingly and make sure that it cures overnight...
