Refine SRX8 Drivetrain with Serpent 601058

The Serpent 601058 13T pinion is a competition-minded upgrade for the SRX8 that focuses on stronger torque output and reliable operation. Built to tight tolerances, the 13-tooth unit gives a useful mix of acceleration and control for race day tuning.

What the 13T Delivers on Track

Fitting the Serpent 601058 tends to improve throttle response and midrange drive, helping with controlled exits and traction on technical sections. It aims to smooth power delivery under heavy loads.

Fitting Hints and Best Practices

To get the best from the 13T pinion follow these pointers:

Set a consistent mesh pattern to minimise wear and noise.
Use a small amount of thread lock on the set screw to prevent loosening.
Periodically check the pinion for damage after hard sessions.

Will changing to Serpent 601058 affect top speed?

A 13T pinion typically lowers top speed slightly compared to larger pinions while improving acceleration. Expect a trade off between outright top speed and better corner exits.

Do I need to alter diff settings when switching pinions?

You may want to revisit diff preload and oil weight after changing gearing to keep handling balanced, especially if acceleration characteristics change noticeably.

What checks should I do after first run?

After the first session inspect the pinion and spur for even wear, confirm the set screw is tight, and listen for unusual gear noise indicating mesh issues.
