Great buggy, no bad comments about it really, unless you find that the chassis is too stiff as some people have...

Consider a P5, a 421B, a P7R, RB WS7II, Collari lc21b7, JP B5 stock...these are all s'posed to be quality motors...I am thinking about the same thing as you at the moment, and I'm leaning toward the v-spec, 421B or JP B5...the collari and the RB are allegedly not that hot on bottom end, and my track is tight and technical, so they are out...

Word of advice... get the King Headz center diff brace right from the start.
If you decide to use the upgrade shock towers...double up the front tower with the stock one behind the upgrade...then you will need to dremel the slot in the towers where the upper hinge pins pass through. The plastic spacer on the hinge pin will have a tiny amount of contact with the shock tower...this is not good...just need to dremel the tower enough to eliminate the slight binding.
