Alright, so I had a close look at your gearing and whatnot, and it is on the high side. However, I can't see that destroying 6 MMMs. As said, the setup is used in other places with success (tho is aggressive.) The MMM is good for 2500W or so, and lots alot of power.

Something else seems wrong, either a truck issue, setup issue, or driving issue. I would def get a ET to look at the power levels. I would def turn punch control off and learn to use finger control and even radio settings. Be triple sure there is no binding, and that there is not something else wrong, like way too light of oil in the C.diff causing too much unloading. You just can't fubar that many MMMs so fast with what you are doing (as least as it looks on paper.)

One thing that is often overlooked is extreme servo draw due to improperly set epa or binding in the steering system. Remove the pinion, power up the truck and try to manually roll the truck while holding the steering wheel full lock both ways. Also set you epa so that the servo is not pushing the wheels past the travel. A faulty servo can also overdraw the MMM internal bec. I have seen this happen 1st hand. Try removing the red wire and then powering the rec/servos with a rec pack.
