I got my Revo mount today in the mail and installed it. Wow, it's nice. NO flex whatsoever. With my last mount, I could push down on the back of the motor (with some force) and it would flex affecting mesh. This mount is as solid as a rock! Looks pretty too. :) Later, I plan to take some pics and post them in my long dead revo thread.

The two speed would be nice, but I honestly don't think that the little clutch arm or the single pin it engages can stand up to serious power. Not to mention you lose reverse and need a mechanical brake solution. If I was going to stick with the two speed, I would use a 9L or 10L, use the narrow ratio gearset (so there isn't a big leap between switching), and use 38/15 spur/pinion.
