That is what I did. I run a 1521 1y, MMM and 6s 4500 30c fp lipo. Gearing is 15/49 with stock muggy diffs and 6" tall tires. I can get 25min out of it on a 90f day without going over 155f on the motor, batt comes off at about 120f, but it likes to run hot and never goes out of balance. Plus it takes 4500mah back so this setup is not pulling it past what it can handle. I have 75k in the cd... I like wheelies!

You may be able to get away with a 80mm medusa around 1600kv (the 1521 1y is 1577kv) but considering they cost 150+ new, I would just look around doe a 1521 1y. I bought mine brand new for 180 shipped... I also got a used one for 170 shipped.

I have a medusa 36-80-1600 for my muggy, I have not finished the conversion yet though. I think/ hope that this works well, I will be Running 6S Lipo. I have a LT-6 that I'll probably run first, but if that gives me any problems I'll just buy another MMM.
