I have plans to do a 141in phazer my question is will the lil 480 spin this track or am i asking for tomuch?

no problem spinning that track, just use the 136 phazers as a baseline for gearing and clutching. i would think lug heigth will be a larger factor.

Just hold the back end up (you can do this with one hand on a PZ480). The track will spin very easily.
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Yes just gear down. All Phazers are geared too high to begin with in my opinion. Gear them down and they really wake up. Of course you will lose top-end on perfect conditions, downhill etc.
I would go a tooth or 2 lower than the PZ480 ST was geared. You could go 15x31 with a 64 chain.

Looked at some other notes . . .
You may want to go with even shorter gears (2.1 or even 2.2) if you plan to use it off-triail a lot.
I assume you will have the 8 tooth drivers.

Oh yeah this is going to be only off trail. Thanks for the gearing tips that was my next question

For strictly off trail, the Phazers need really low gears.
I suggest . . .
16x33 with a 66 chain
- or -
16x35 with a 66 chain
