+1. You can do a lot of things we don't recommend if you know what you're doing and know what warnings signs to look for if something is being stressed. As a blanket statement, we say the 1406 is not to be used in a short course truck, use the 1410 or 1415. But if you gear it correctly and monitor motor temps carefully, it should be able to produce more than enough power. Just don't try running it on 3s or try gearing it for 50MPH and you should be just fine.
