Default MMP question

Excuse my ignorance but i have yet to find how many amps the mmp can safely pull. FYI i did search on this site but found no answer, maybe it is in the hundereds of page on hear but i couldnt find the answer.
The reason i ask is because i run this w/castle 540 5700 in my hyper 10 sc. It gets hot and i have some credit at hobbycity. two motors im lookin at, a KD36-60-06L 4000kv Brushless Inrunner @100 amp or
KD36-74-06XL 2800kv Brushless Inrunner @110 amp but i'm only gonna run 2s
just want to make sure these don't draw to much amp
TY

From personal experience and what I've heard from others Castle rates their ESCs very conservatively. They even say on their website they don't like to play the "numbers game" on rating huge amp capabilities like many others manufacturers do. As long as you gear the vehicle reasonably and there isn't any binding in the drivetrain the MMP will be able to handle more than enough current for most applications.
