That motor will probably struggle, I think those motors with the fins are essentially a 380 sized motor in a 540 sized can. Look for a motor that has something.5 turns, like 10.5T or 13.5T. You probably also want a bigger motor, like the 550 sized, although a decent 540 size should be ok, it may get hot and require a smaller pinion. You are probably pushing the limits of that ESC too if you run a 4000kv motor, it would be more suited to 3000kv. You should probably look for a 120amp ESC to be safe
