Default Motor selection help (V4/D8 buggy basher)

I am planning out a build for a buggy/monster truck sort of hybrid...total 100% offroad basher.

Current plans call for a V4 converted D8 buggy, and I plan on running 5S with 6" monster truck tires (and D8T arms and parts for clearance)...


Originally thought of going with a truggy chassis and the Hobbywing Xerun M3 Monster Truck combo, but I switched to the D8 buggy for a more compact wheelbase, and I seriously doubt it will fit in the V4 D8 buggy chassis...

What would be a good economy motor that will actually fit, and deliver monster torque and speed with this setup? For that matter, what is the limit to the can length that will fit in this kit?

Thanks!
