Good info Ben! Your like a combo of "Vesla whisperer and Vesla guinea pig. Tough ass build buddy

[@Meyers2strokeRcgarage]

Thanks, my bro. I really appreciate it👍🏼🤙🏼😊

A 1000 thanks for making this for Kraken Vesla noobs and future Big Bore Veslas like me. I've watched and liked all your Vesla videos and i am one of those viewers who asks a lot of Questions which you always answer. I consider you one of the Experts and I wanted to like the video but unfortunately i can't due to the mis-information on the trans. Correct me if i am wrong but you have a Taylor Big Bore Trans case ($180) Kraken Stock Non HD Diff Gear, Kraken Drive Pinion, Taylor Idler Gear ($45), Taylor Blackbone Layshaft (Can't run Kraken Ring & Pinion) ($37) and Blackbone Ring & Pinion ($65) Blackbone w/adapter ($33). All those Taylor parts total Not $60 but almost $375. I just don;t want your viewers to think a $45 idler gear is all you need for a Big Bore bulletproof trans.

Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏼 and there is absolutely no misinformation bro maybe watch the video again. I clearly stated what I had for parts.

Great video, 👍, going to putting a 50gt in my vesla

[@Meyers2strokeRcgarage]

Right on bro 😎 👍🏼🤙🏼

[@terrya4603]

500$ and you can upgrade it to a 71! And man what a difference it makes

[@adamcox374]

@@terrya4603 cheers for that info, it's my 1st big bore, didn't want to drop myself in the deepend, only had and tuned zenoahs. 😴

[@Meyers2strokeRcgarage]

Yeah I upgraded my 40GT to a 71 supreme 👍🏼 well worth the $500

[@brianbailey9798]

That gear plate isn’t threaded by design…the powder coating gets threads in it just from the M6 bolt going through it. It is best to clean that threading out.

[@michaelbartino4225]

Great video! I talked to Detroit performance and they mentioned the Kraken stock diff gear, stock bevel gears and stock top shaft gear with the Taylor idler and aluminum case will handle big bore. Anyone can confirm? Also, the threads in the gear plate are from the powder coating and not actually threaded in the aluminum.

[@Meyers2strokeRcgarage]

@@michaelbartino4225 thanks bro👍🏼 yeah I don’t know about the stock ring gear and lay shaft gear, when I blew my idler gear the first time it destroyed the lay shaft gear with it. That’s why I went with the hardened kraken ring and lay shaft gear with the Taylor idler gear.

[@terrya4603]

You’ll need the hardened diff gears. I broke the stock ones on the 3rd or 4th tank of gas. The gear plate will eventually crack around the two screws closest to the front of the car. Takes a few runs but will happen.

[@michaelbartino4225]

⁠@@terrya4603you’re talking about the 4 bevel gears inside the diff? I’m going for the 50gt btw. Yours has the 71?

[@terrya4603]

@@michaelbartino4225 yes. I originally had a 50gt and it cracked the sun gear in the rear diff pretty quickly. Taylor RC had the hardened ones
