Wow, thanks for all the responses. I think I'm going to go with the Savage, and part out my Emaxx.

What do you guys think the weight difference would be? My Emaxx RTR is 11.6lbs. Haven't got a clue what the Savage will be.

Serum, thanks very much for the advice. I have the 2 speed, and I think it may already have the cam-type steering. I'll get the diff housings and cups asap. I won't be purchasing any un-necessary alloy bits for it, don't see the point in them.

Are these the diff cases your referring to?

Your collection of Savages is very impressive, I love the motor mount on your bashing one. Is there any chance you could make one to sell to me? Or even a regular one that isn't so fancy :) So far I'm looking at this conversion, but it leaves the motors up high, and I'm concerned the plate might bend because of that. I can create the battery trays out my Emaxx chassis if I need to. I don't really want to pay $80 for basically a motor plate and a pinion.

What sort of gearing do you think I might need with my 9XL on 14 cells? Currently I only have 2x 18t and 2x 20t mod1 pinions. From the normal clutchbell sizes I think this might be too high?

Thanks for all the input guys, its really appreciated.
