I'm probably going with a Sidewinder SCT or my Medusa 3300. Also what did you use to change the body mount?
not sure if a battery tray will fit or not, its a tight fit, you can get saddle packs for 30bux from gen ace, and you really only need one pack maybe two, the performance advantage is just better. i velcro'd the rear and used a std body post to hold the front down. im using a center dif and there is no way im going back to a slipper, the tuneablilty is great, it will handle as much power as you can throw at it, in fact it feels better with a 4.5 than an 8.5 even though its ballistic!
