That's the key! Just about any Option House parts these days seem way over priced. Nice score though!

No doubt, I see a few of those Option House clutch bell sets on eBay all the time...but the prices are ludicrous.

I've found if you are willing to wait long enough, you can get NIB parts for some pretty decent prices. It's generally from people who don't really know what they have. Makes you wonder how they get this stuff in the first place.

I'm guessing that's just gravity at work because of the way he's holding it up. That middle gear probably moves up a hair when placed into the bearing in the other side of the case.

Yup,when the other half is in,meshing will be ok,bit afraid i might blow up yhe tip shaft as a note came with the rrp gear that it will lessen the life of the top shaft,but was thinkin its just for the GT as nitro has more torque than BL electric. Hope all will be well...
