I have to say that my lst2 has proven much stronger than the savage. Plus I prefer the layout on the lst than the savage. I have the flm kit and it is nice, but I prefer the simplicity of esc brakes and reverse. The MMM has no issue running the hacker c50 xl and the 1521, so I see no need for multi speed trannys and mech brakes, especially for 40mph.
The erevo is pretty good too, better than a stock maxx, but not as beefy as the lst. Lst diffs and the al cases are great, easy to shim and about the best thing I have seen in a monster truck.
Make sure you get the lst2 arms hubs and driveshafts. All of the other variants have the weaker lst1 parts. Or get a muggy, those are good too.

+1. I own a Muggy and it's a TON better than my old Revo. At least it can handle my 1515 without blowing diff gears
Get the RPM LST arms with the LST2/Mug adapters and Lunsford turnbuckles and it's a VERY tough truck. I managed to break a front spindle on mine and replaced it with an aluminum GH one (probably going to break the C-blocks now
). So far an ace in my book.
