Here is one. Some people I know have tried it and says the power is incredible and is reliable. I have seen the kit in person but not hooked up and it does look good and good quality. [link]http://redcatracing.com/itemdetail_part.asp?partno=kitbrushlessmotor[/link]

im not sure if u know anyhting about brushless or not but i have a brushless T4
it has a MM 7700
and here are a few tips
braid the esc wire that connects to the reciever to reduce glitching and directly solder the motor to the esc to also reduce glitching

also replace the white plastic tamiya connectors with deans connectors for your batteries because the white plastic ones will melt

the stock e-maxx motors are 23 turn. the hv maxx 4.5 is 4 turns. I have a hv maxx 6.5 and it is like 2.5x faster than the stock set up.

I would go with novak just because they are reliable. You know how it is to buy something just to find out its a piece of poo.

the hv is bigger and more powerfull than the 550 motors. it only requires 1.just about any brushless mt has only 1 motor.

im not sure if u know anyhting about brushless or not but i have a brushless T4
it has a MM 7700
and here are a few tips
braid the esc wire that connects to the reciever to reduce glitching and directly solder the motor to the esc to also reduce glitching

also replace the white plastic tamiya connectors with deans connectors for your batteries because the white plastic ones will melt
my t4 is also brushless and i know to do thase things and have done so on the t4.
