i have a 60 conv to a 90 useing a ys 91 and i love it. 710 blades and the longer tail boom, 9252 on all servos and 401 with the 9253 on tail. it takes forever to auto down, you can almost see the blades stop and it is still floating. i do though have the bottom frame stiffener for support. but this thing will cut and jerk all over the place and is very stable!!! i think when the new 90 kits come out that the SE will be awsome though, just depends on which way you wont to go...

i'm with pepper the conversion is a good idea i'm running ys.91, hatori sb-16 & carbon 680's, 11 tooth pinion with stock boom. it moves like hell!!!! i have the conversion kit but have not installed it yet. i'm getting excellent performance without the conversion. if you don't want to buy the conversion kit buy want to run a big block just purchase a new pinion either 11 or 12 tooth depending on what gear ratio you want to run and get your motor & pipe combo and you're ready to rock. one thing i will suggest if you stick with 680's you will want to run a govenor if you aren't already to keep headspeed in check.
