Re: E revo Brushed Edition
Which E-revo do you have, the 1/10th or the 1/16th scale?

Re: E revo Brushed Edition
Should just be a direct swap then. Take out the brushed and put in the brushless. Depending on which brushless system you get you may want to think of changing the pinion gear.

Re: E revo Brushed Edition
Likely not giving you any new information but this would be a direct drop in. You would also keep your car waterproof with this system.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Traxxas-3370...item3f1b162b16 Sorry, not much help with the 1/16 other than to direct you to the Traxxas site. You will find pinion and spur gear sizes here. http://traxxas.com/products/models/e...074erevovxl116 On a side note, my buddy has two of the vxl revo's for over a year and has had no problems with either of them. Hope this helps.

Re: E revo Brushed Edition
im pretty sure the 380 brushless uses a smaller motor mount.

Re: E revo Brushed Edition
I believe the brushed merv has the 550 titan in it so any of the 540 brushless kits should bolt right in
a caslte sidewinder kit is a polpular swap, if you search for a "big block" swap on most merv forums you should find lots of info. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/CASTLE-4600kV...ht_4580wt_1059 http://www.ebay.ca/itm/NEW-Duratrax-...ht_1862wt_1037
