The 3rd gen will not fit. You can have a 12-1 ratio 2nd gen built which is the same ratio as the 3rd gen at a wholesale place in San Diego for 250.00 including shipping. their number is: 1-800-399-7845

I ordered mine yesterday.

Good luck

Here's the deal slowflyer, I have a box from PSC and its a P.O.S., I dont want to play games with junk boxes. I want to try and make a 3rd gen box work.

Thanks for the link. Whats the difference between the 3rd gen and 2nd gen gear boxes, bigger gears? bigger shafts? less free play? better centering?

does anyone know the differences?

I thought that if the gear set was changed its all that would be needed....

Go over to www.nwbombers.com . That guy is a member on that board. Can't remember his screen name, but you should be able to find him. I thought the kit was a little pricey, but it's a straight bolt-on.
I may have his phone number, I'll get back to you.
Found it.......360-575-9762 eves/wknds.
Let us know how it works out.
