Default My losi lst e-conversion fine tuning

Hey guys I'm nit picking my build and since it's cold out I've decided to correct/ improve some things.

Losi lst first generation:

Castle mamba 2
Neewer 1700kv (it's ok)
Custom center diff/mount tower motor on top
48/14 gearing lowest in can go else motor hits servo
Hitec 7955 servo
Hpi gt2 wheels/tires
Axial battery tray and receiver box
Running on 4s 65c 5500Mah battery
Cooling fan on motor

Temps were 150-180 motor 90 on esc sometimes 110

12.8lbs fully dressed.

100k in front diff center diff 500k rear 10k

Complaints: like to lower temps a tad..but options are limited.

I need a 54t spur but don't think they make one?

Lower kv motor maybe? Will it offset temps?

Other get better wheels/tires that are lighter and not ballooning as much?

Rather convert hub/hexes to 17mm instead of 14mm

Instead of spending another $100 getting xxl arms carriers and 8 mm axle stubs and other needed gear I've been researching and it looks like traxxas Revo or xo1 17mm hex hubs Will work ??? I have extra 6mm stubs to make the thread ends right or left turn threads so not a big deal for those bushing inserts..

So this is what I got and like to get more input
Thanks art
