Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Land Models / March 2004Vented clutch bell housing...
As available on www.topoptions.com in the Options section. I have a Protech Phaser 4 RS with Protech SX-21 .21 engine. Whats the advantages, disadvantages etc with a vented clutch bell? Worth it? They're cheaper than standard ones anyway, so i'll probly get one, just wondered if there was a better reason i could use to my mates ;) ?

Well one good reason is, if it's vented it means it will allow the clutch better cooling and lessen burn out of the same That sounds a good a reason as any to me as your clutch will work better & last longer.

No probs Dan....When u think of it, Clutches are friction devices so generate heat, I have seen many cars on the way up to my local ski slope getting stuck on the steep hill and smoke pouring out of the clutch coz the hill was too steep and too many people in the car. The car only moved when they got out to get over the steep bit lol...!!!! (and that is a tarmac road too....!!!) Regards.......Mark The people in those cars have cheap clutches. :)) SignatureJustin Mahn remove Panties to e-mail > > As available on www.topoptions.com in the Options section.

Whoever designed that road wants shooting..!! Regards........Mark |
