If you put in an 8000 be ready to replace diffs,tranny gears,axles,and misc. other parts,the 8000 is a monster compared to the stock frenzy motors.You may be able to go awhile on the stock parts but be ready to break stuff,depending on which radio system you use you can turn you're throttle down so you are not putting all the juice to the drivetrain at once.

well, the pictures i saw had a different spur gear mounted to the tranny...and just the single side motor. can i just unplug all of that and run the stock spur?

in mine i took out the stock motors and just bolted the one motor in. I put a 17t pinion on it with the stock sized spur.

Running a mamba 5400kv motor. 7.4v LiIon pack

0 issues besides the driveshafts wearing out the cups faster. CVD's ftw.

Oh and I'm running a losi ball diff, the stock diff is poopy.

i might just sell the mamba if it's gonna be THAT much too much

Well you're diffs must be better than the stock ones I had.
