Product details
Turn your benchtop CISON LS-52 V8 into a drivetrain-ready powerhouse—engineered for both 1/5 scale Baja 5B RC cars and high-performance RC boats.
Swapping a miniature V8 into an RC build used to mean weeks of custom lathe work and guesswork. Purpose-built for the CISON LS-52 52cc V8 Engine, this complete Centrifugal Clutch Assembly Kit bridges your V8 crankshaft directly to standard drivetrains—delivering effortless unloaded startups, smooth idle rumble, and reliable torque transfer without stalling.
Choose Your Setup (Select Option Above)
| For 1/5 RC Cars (5,000 RPM) | Built for Baja 5B / 5T / 5SC off-road chassis. Lets the V8 rev freely at idle before snapping into gear for hard, high-torque launches on dirt or asphalt. |
| For RC Boats (3,000 RPM) | Tuned for marine propeller loads. Engages earlier and smoother at lower RPM for progressive dockside launch and precise throttle control on the water. |
Key Features & Performance Highlights
- Direct Bolt-On Fitment for CISON LS-52: Precision-engineered to mount straight onto the CISON LS-52 V8 crankcase (85.22 × 84.21 × 59.00 mm housing footprint), connecting seamlessly to 1/5 scale Baja 5B drivetrains or marine drive shafts without custom fabrication.
- Smooth Unloaded Startups (Zero Stalling): Automatic centrifugal action keeps the clutch completely disengaged at low idle, eliminating starting drag so your V8 fires up easily and idles cleanly before engaging power.
- Precision Spline & Output Shaft Interface: Machined with a 7mm 13-tooth internal spline bore and a 10mm output shaft for zero-slop, high-torque power transfer under hard acceleration. (Please verify your shaft dimensions before ordering.)
- High-Strength Skeleton Metal Housing: Rigid metal-printed open-frame cover resists flex under V8 torque while maximizing airflow around the clutch shoes and bell to prevent heat buildup during extended runs.
Complete All-in-One Assembly Arrives as a complete conversion unit—including the Open-Frame Metal Clutch Housing, 2-Shoe Centrifugal Clutch, Pre-Installed Application Spring, and Clutch Bell—ready to bolt straight onto your CISON LS-52 V8.
