it'll work just fine in a buggy. as long as you already have a 2.25 stealth trans, all you'll need is the 2.65 rpm conversion.

yes it will work in the buggy.

the rpm conversion will need an entire stealth transmission except for the case and top shaft.

So basically I can buy the RPM case and top shaft then got to Tower and get the internals and I have my own Stealth RPM trans correct?

tower has the rpm conversion too so you can just order everything from them at the same time and save shipping.

Yeah but do I want to run such a high gear ration on a buggy?

the b4 is a 2.60. this will be 2.65. not that much of a difference.

stealth trans = 2.25
rpm trans = 2.65
rc10b4 trans = 2.60

thus running the rpm trans with modern motors and such you can gear the car pretty much just like you would gear a b4. since there are more people running b4's at the tracks than vintage rc10's that knowledge can be very helpful.
