Im gonna try out this new oil of Johns this weekend. I bought a drive from him and he also sent this oil for me to try so I m looking forward to reporting back about it.
I know John has different lowers and strengthening in them now but I m sure in the future we will all see a huge jump in this product.

Also feel its worth mentioning- John has some pretty cool pictures taken in Havasu of the slight damage done by my expanding maximus. We found out together that those props arent rated for very much power... I think we measured the deflection at just under an inch outwards, and just under an inch forwards...

lvrepoman, I have felt your pain with all the bravo band aid tactics. i still cannot figure out why my 509 m3 procharged 27 Baja Boss eats bravos for lunch. tried all the cryod gear thick floor, steel tower, bull chit and still destroyes upper gears. Iam runnin 7lbs boost and i treat the drive with respect never air it out and gentle on the stick. i think the combo of trim and acceleration is the problem. any insight will be appreciated.

Oil separating from the gear surface causing metal to metal contact.
You're a prime candidate for some good oil.

I use royal purple gear lube. Jason i think you are correct about the rpm range and torque, do you think if i swaped the 30 bravo prop to a 28 it would decrease the load on the drive? and raise the rpms out of that danger zone.
