Hey Ivan,

I have a RC8Te. I have a Tekno V4 conversion kit waiting to go on but at the moment I still run the Team Associated conversion kit. Anyway yes the battery tray is tight but I can still fit a Turnigy 5000mah 40C soft packs of 4-6S cell count. The 8awg wires are bit of a tight fit but it fits.

As for the motor I think the either 2D (2000kv) or the 2.5D (1700kv) versions of the T8 would work fine in a truggy depending on track, gearing and cell count you chose. I run Castle 1518 (1800kv) ESC in my RC8Te and the thing is a beast on 5S. On 6S I fear that the drivetrain wouldn't last long at all. I have 30K diff fluid in the center diff and it still lifts the front end if I am not careful with the throttle.
