It will fit in an e revo, as the side mount has a 30mm hole spacing option that will fit a m4 thread bolt. Only issue is that the kb45 has a 6mm shaft, so pinion choice is limited. Mike may be able to get the mod1 pinions made with 6mm bore...
Kershaw designs has the 6mm bore pinions... in a few different tooth choices.
I have run the L can kb45 motors with good success. Not bad temps and they sure are powerful. They do draw some amps so good batteries are required.
