14/51 worked well for me (you should've mentioned you wanted a 14T pinion). However, since yours may be lighter, you may want to go to 15T, but I'd get it all together and try it out first. Mine wouldn't wheelie because of the weight distribution, but all four tires would spin easily. I don't think you'll be disappointed in the power. What ESC do you plan to use?

I've checked out OM.com, they seem pretty good too, just a narrow selection of raw materials (metals only.) I'm leaning towards a 15t, but it always takes a bit of experimenting for me to get it where I want. Just a bit pricey at $12 ea. I'm looking to get a good balance of speed, TQ and runtime (aren't we all?) If it doesn't wheelie its ok, I have the Rusty for that :) Gets to be a bit of a trouble at times.
At your suggestion, I went to Ratshack and got a cheap cap for the 9920. Put it in the Rusty, worked great, but just not as smooth as the Mtroniks I have. Allelectronics.com has better caps which I may pick up when I order some fans. I can't find any "fast-switching" caps in that spec tho, so I don't know what diff this will make long term. I'd like something like the Q125, just don't want to spend another $280 when that's about what I've spend on the whole truck so far. :( We'll see.
