Default DC-3 electric conversion

Hi there all of you fans of the watt and the volt:

I'm working on the conversion of a Top Flite DC-3 (8-10 lbs.) to electric. So far I have the motors (Turningy G46 a .46 glow equivalent) and the esc (Turningy 60A). Now, which battery size do I need to run those two motors for about 8 - 10 minutes flights? Although I'm an experienced glow pilot this is my first electric. Your assistance is really appreciated.
