Fangs in my Stryfe without shell cutting.

I wanted to fit "132" size motors in a Stryfe without cutting holes. I think there needs to be more room at the back end of the motors for multiple reasons so i Bulged the side. Album.

I made up 1/4" aluminum blocks a little bigger than the motors, stuck them on the ends and screwed the FWC et al in place. Using a hairdryer i heated the shell and gradually tightened the FWC screws to bulge the side of the shell out.

Works great, left the motor terminals straight, wired with 16 AWG wire and the additional 1/8" clearance is perfect.

I know the alu. blocks are rough, I banged them out the other night to see if this would work.

I also know that there is a discolored area on the outside of shell because i pushed it a little too quickly.

Oh and yes those are Hyperions in the cage, The Fangs are in the assembled blaster.
