Yea I can get a core, but not sure I want to go back to a 350 thinking 700r4/205 would be nice. Waiting to hear back on 2 700r4's not sure what TC yet :crazy: Also rear pinion has some movement now too. :rolleyes:

Man let me know if you need a core. I could probably get you one for I would almost be willing to say about two or three old batteries that will atleast hold a charge. REALLY CHEAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:eek1:
