Default what motor would be the best?

i have custom made a larger chassis with a stampede vxl transmission and i don't know what would be the best motor for it. the new chassis is quite a bit heavier than the normal stampede chassis. i was thinking about getting the traxxas vxl BLess system but i'm not sure if it would push the heavier stampede fast enough with a 7 cell 4200mah battery. if anyone knows of a motor that isn't extremely high in price, pease tell me. it can be brushless or brushed. thanks for anything!

Default RE: what motor would be the best?

It depends on just how much heavier your new chassis is. The Velineon motor is a fairly good choice for more massive applications, due to it's 3500kv rating, for a 1/10 scale 2wd truck. You may want to gear low (small pinion gear) and work it out from there.
