Here is the description from the GForce site:
Clutch Block Kit with Engine Mounts for T-Rex 700N (Part# GFT7118
The new G-Force clutch block for the 700N allows infinite adjustments for proper meshing between the pinion gear and the main gear. Since the 700N is supplied with a fine teeth main gear, close tolerance meshing is required to prevent stripping under hard collective use. The G-Force clutch block will allow you set up a perfect mesh easily. The clutch block also has extended range to work with other gear ratios.
The G-Force clutch block uses slotted screw holes allowing the clutch block to slide back and forth. The G-Force clutch block is supplied with locking hex nuts that work with the stock 700N shoulder bolts. Fine adjustments can be made without the need for thread locking compound if you need to adjust it.
The other unique feature over other aftermarket clutch blocks are dual pinion bearings that are retained at both ends within the clutch block housing. The G-Force clutch block also allows the use of the stock pinion clutch nut that will prevent endplay of the pinion shaft that rides within the two lower radial bearings. The third bearing top bearing is for the starter shaft support. All three radial bearings are factory installed.
Included with the clutch block kit are specially designed engine mounts which also use locking hex nuts without the need for locking compound each time you adjust it. The G-Force engine mounts will allow you to keep the engine aligned with the clutch block. The engine mounts have the same adjustable range as the clutch block.
-Kit includes Clutch Block and engine mounts
-Factory installed bearings
-Locking hex nuts included
-Complete instructions
M3 Locknut wrench (part# GFA7082)
The G-Force M3 locknut wrench is designed with the heli builder in mind. It allows for installing M3 locknuts into tight areas that require side access at 90 degrees. Also, the G-Force M3 locknut wrench has a recessed pocket to hold the M3 locknut for easy installation or removal of the M3 locknut. We also pre-tapped the tool with two M3 holes, so that you can attach it to a longer handle for reaching into deeper areas.

It seems that no one want's to do the review on this one.
It also seems that there are other that have no intentions of keeping their word and doing reviews for the parts they received.
I do not think that some people realize the effort that I have put into this to get FREE Product for them to try and keep in exchange for a review. This takes a lot of time to co-ordinate with G-Force never mind the cost in it for me and for G-Force. Personally I gain nothing and G-Force gets a review. I actually lose on this deal every time I ship an item.
It seems to me that a few people like to spoil it for the rest.
There will be no further products up for grabs. Please take time to thank the individuals that have decided that they will take the product for free and not take the time to stand up to their word and write a review.
I do want to take time to also THANK the people who did write reviews. They are very much appreciated by myself, G-Force and all the other pilots in the hobby that see the reviews before they make a purchase.

Are there any T-rex 700 owners here? There must be at least one of you that would love to have a high quality aftermarket part for your T-Rex 700. All you need to do is write a review and the part is yours.
I still have this available.

I want to take a few minutes and say a few words G-Force has been one of RCHeliForum.com's biggest contributors in sponsorship, G-Force has given me much product to share with many in exchange for honest reviews. I want to thank Garf owner of G-Force for doing this. Thank You Garf, your support over the last 1-2 years has been greatly appreciated by myself and several others.
I also want to thank ALL of the members in the RC Heli Community who contributed the reviews of the G-Force Products. Thank You it was greatly appreciated by myself and G-Force Heli.
I now want to share the bad news. G-Force Heli has decided that we will no longer do these giveaways in exchange for a review and will not likely return to doing such a thing. You may be asking why this has come up. Well the simple answer is people who promise to do a review and disappear after receiving a part for free. G-Force gives me the items for FREE and asks me to GIVE them away for FREE in exchange for an honest review of the product. Many have done so without a problem. Recently we have had a couple people ask for parts in exchange for a review, G-Force sends the items to me and I sent them to a member. There are costs associated here to G-Force and me. The individual is only asked for a moment of their time to write a review. So I ask everyone to THANK the guys and gals that have decided to not keep their word and destroy what I worked hard on so that I can bring you some free items.
So I am personally saying THANK YOU to the BAD GUYS and GALS out there who have helped bring down something that many have come to enjoy.
So there are no longer any free items available and there will be no further give away's.

If you are still looking for one to review the G-Force clutch block kit, I would be honored to do as such. Yes, I do own a Trex 700, which I am in the process of building. Fred

Once you complete the rules and I get your PM I will send it your way.
