I figured I'd post in this thread and see if anyone can help before I start a new thread. I've got an 18SS on the way to convert and would like to know which of the following motors would be best suited to it. I have these motors sitting here currently:

540 9L with 1/8" shaft
380C 6L
Basic 5300
and Mamba Max 5700

I'm thinking that pretty much anything but the 9L would have too high of a kV and not produce the kind of torque I'd want to see in there. What do you guys think? I'm also open to buying a new motor in case anyone has a different suggestion. I'm not real concerned about cell count or configuration as I'll probably be buying new packs for this vehicle.
