OK, here's the new news... Got a deal that I couldn't pass up on a Quark Monster Pro 125B, new in package with the neon wires versus the "old" white wires:027: . I snagged it for $260, shipped, so OK, not a GREAT deal or anything, but still something I couldn't pass up when the 16024 goes for well over 3 bills... I'm going to take the Quark, stick it on my current 8XL, bump up to 5s (18.5V) from my current 4s (14.8V) and see how she goes.

I'm planning on adding a sync to the Quark and a couple of fans to keep temps in check, I'm also planning a sync for the motor and maybe a single 25mm fan for it as well. Best case this will help my current setup and save me $335 for the Lehner, worst case, I planned on spending the cash and I'll grab the Lehner anyway:) :).

Should have the new controller by as late as Monday, once I get things set back up I'll post some pics so you guys can see what I've got going here. Nothing to special, stock Savage 2 speed trans, center CVDs, lowered the stock motor plate by about 4mm and am using ring mounts for the motor. Everything fits great, looks pretty good, but I may make some changes with the new setup, we see...

Appreciate everyones input, now all I'll have to do is fine tune gearing once I have her moving :) :)
