heh Im going to drop to 4 cells,put electronics in middle and remove the upper deck and drop CG .Hey Kevo How much will a 4/5A 4-pack be?
I runs nice feels like theres more suspension play so I used harder springs.GM upper bulk fits smoothly on the GPM lower bulk
GM Lower needs 2 extra holes and guide pins are excentric so I didn use it, might try to convert it to have moveable lower A-Arms

I'm sure you could handle converting your pack to 4 cells yourself

but if you really need another pack send me an email.

Those shocks were supposed to be on a GM 1/18 Micro that was supposed to come out like a year ago. I found it all out from G Shocker from the original Speedster forums. But the GM car never came out for some reason. Or maybe it did and nobody knows about it.
