No matter what motor you get, the current load on the ESC won't change (at a given voltage). If it takes, say, 500w to push that truck around to a certain speed, it will still take that same 500w, so the ESC won't get any cooler. Going to a bigger motor will make the motor run cooler, but not the ESC. Gearing down, using smaller tires, and lightening the weight will make the biggest difference to the ESC. Or going with higher voltage and a higher turn motor will work too.

Sometimes conversions don't go the exact way you want, but that's part of the fun treally. It's just a matter of finding the combo and setup that works the best. "Back to the drawing board" as they say.
