Hi Attila! great to see you took this time to write in English.. (it takes me some time as well, to write in German, and it's not near as good as your english..) welcome to this forum!

The savage is a tough truck! that's for sure!! I am going to do a centerdiff rebuild on a savage soon, and i will include detailed pictures why i think the savage is nice for converting to BL..

You are from Germany, so if you ever waste a diff, get the Nitro-Mods spider mod!

16 cells you could use the 9920 with the 10L or the 7XL or 8XL, using the automatic transmission. (this RULES!!!!) (be sure to get the heavy duty 2nd gear mod)

About the weight;

My allmost complete aluminum savage weighted about 14,5 pounds, with 16 cells as well..

A friend of mine runs his savage with 14-16 cells with this 10L and a schulze 18.61 with the right gearing he can peak to 71 km/h!! Brushless is really strong.

Though the 7XL or the 8XL gets my vote. With the 8XL you will be able to run it on maxx 20 cells (with the right gearing) and the 7XL will let you run it with 18 if needed..

The runtime would be about 12-15 minutes. With the XL the motor will run nice and cool

The 8XL will give you a bit more runtime than the 7XL,

Remember, the kv ranges that Lehner has with their motors is under load. With the gearing you are using

If you plan on running 2nd gear, i would use the 8XL.. (with a 16/49 gearing it is really quick (40 mph))
