I was thinking height. With a large scale, you could maybe put battery trays on both sides (on the dirt guards), and then maybe make something similar to the original emaxx motor mount so the motors sit up over the cells, but out to the sides a little. You'd probably have room up front on one side for the receiver, BEC, and the dual ESCs.

That is gonna be one HEAVY vehicle!
12s lipos are gonna be around 3-4lbs each.
Motors are around 1.4lbs each.
ESCs, BEC, receiver area probably close to 1/4-1/2 lb altogether.

So, you're looking at around 11-13lbs of just equipment at the least, not to mention the weight of the vehicle itself (around 10lbs?).
