i have a buggy tank from a kyocho inferno and i wanna put it into my maxx... will it be better than the stock tank? at the last race i was at the engine was leaning out at half tank and i was hurting and eatin' plugs...

also... n e way i can do this without modding the chassis aside from drill holes? i cant seem to get it to sit rite without moving alot around...

mount the tank where the receiver batts. are. use a flat receiver pack mounted under the chassis...

ya i was thinking or sitting it there.... will the battery not get banged up? my buddy has his mounted near his front bumper... and it holds it there well...

Try to visit traxxas.com and go to pit pass by steve slayden. He wrote three series of how to get max performance of your maxx.

i have the mags from when slayden did the mods and mine can/will be similar... i dont wanna use a rustler tank becuz 1) i wont be racing the truck this yr... i had the thought of it but img onna run my buggy.... 2) i dont wanna coem in after 6-7 min of running... with the stock tank i got close to 10 min b4 i need fuel... with a buggy tank i can see the same run time.. but thanx for the idea i gapped that and will probably steal sum ideas from slayden :D

If you can, get the mugen mbx5 fuel tank. The height of mbx5 tank much lower compare to others, that's mean lower CG. good luck..
