IIRC, A123s LVC around 2.5v. But really, you will notice the loss of power at the end of the cycle so an LVC is not really needed. 4s LiFe is gonna be 13.2v (3.3v/cell), whereas 4s lipo is 14.8v, so right there you will lose some speed. And if you gear up too much to compensate, the current will go up, which might exceed the pack's capacity. It says 30C (135A), but I'd like to see some ET graphs before I believe that.
