Both engines are fantasic with the exception of the 5 port i had repinched, but i think that was due to carb issues and i have a new one on the way to resolve that.
jwm2 - have you tried the 7 in your truggy and the 3 in your buggy ???

That is the combo I would run (not having seen the tracks you run of course).
We have a few guys running the GX 7R in their truggies and they haul butt Run 3 x alloy shoes with all 1.1 springs, or the JVD (Ascendency) 4 shoe clutch with the gold 1.0 springs - NICE
