olafjak, I too will be using my T-maxx 3.3 for my brushless conversion. I've not yet found an aftermarket electric motor mount for it, so I don't know what I'm going to do about that.

Anyway, I've been reading about what I can do with my 3.3 transmission. I plan on taking out the 1st gear so it will be locked into 2nd gear and doing the forward only conversion. This will remove weight and un-needed rotating mass which apparently is a big deal. The motor will take care of reverse. The brakes on the 3.3 will take care of braking which will reduce engine heat and wear and tear. I think these options are a great way to go.

Let me know what you find out about mounting your motor to your 3.3 tranny! Also, what motor/esc you using?
