well lets see here.

as for necessities, p2 rockers are a must, small things like the aluminum hollow balls, aluminum rocker post (or titanium), titanium turnbuckles, and the traxxas aluminum pushrods are all good additions as well. oh, a wing is a MUST in my opinion. your truck will handle and jump much better. its not hard to make one work. a few washers, some long screws and a mbx 5 wing.

i would cetainly go for the gmaxx tranny and i would also spring for the flm half case, strobe slipper and a steel idler is a must. i would also go for a rc-monster heatsink/clamp. you wont be able to use the clamp part but it will certainly keep that expensive motor cool.

i would recommend a bluebird 660 if you want to save a bit of money. they are good servos, especially for the price. the hitec 645s are also good.

as for wheels and tires, i would go for the wabash rims and crimefighter tires. i have the wabash/crimes and the velocity/crimes and the velocities make it as wide as it is long. its a tad to wide for me.

as far as bodies, i like the crowd pleaser 2.0. its made for a revo although the g2r is a tad longer than a stocker, you should be fine.

im not to sure on the kv of the 1950/8 so i cant really recommend a pinion but that would also depend on the number of cells and if you run a strobe slipper.

You'll be running 6 cells in series with that motor,2 3s packs in series.You could run 2 3s1p packs in series(22.2 volts),good high capacity packs with a high C rating,or you could run 2 3s2p packs in series(also 22.2 volts) ,twice the capacity and amp handling (but twice the size and weight too)
2 6s1p in parralel would be the same as 2 3s2p in series.confused? Check out Batfish's stickyhttp://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2250

Edit:aluminium diff cups would be a good idea.
