Thanks again for all of the help.
20kv will not make a noticeable different.

IMO, either one of those motors has potential. Either one will work.

At this point, I would base my decision on which size shaft will make for the easiest hookup.

IF your truck's stock transmission shaft is 6mm in diameter, then I would go with that one.

Then I would get a stock transmission shaft that is the length you need. The Original E maxx tranny output shaft is 65mm in length and 6mm in diameter. The stock Revo output shaft is 85mm in length. Each one has a steel "hump" in it, but that's easy to turn down. Stick it in a drill. While spinning it, use a grinder or a file on it. Go slow when you get it close so you don't remove too much material. Final polishing can be done with sandpaper.
