55 ounce/inch of torque is a bit more than a standard servo, so it should have enough. I don't know about the speed though; the website should have a speed rating in seconds per 60 degrees.

The T3 is a servo eater! This is widely known. I and most people that race their T3's regularly use servos with 100 oz of torque or more. Get the highest torque metal geared servo that you can afford. I hear that Cirrus has some high torque servos that are very reasonably priced.

It is a TIGHT fit. I have a hobbico servo in my T3 and you have to wedge it in there, also, the arm tends to rub really bad and doesn't have room to center up. You will need to dremel out part of the cover to get it to fit.

He's very right :)

A little off topic here, but Interceptor and I are truly becoming racer geeks.. we left the track less than an hour before the time of his post.
