It's not that easy Jerry. The way the driveline is positioned at the center of the diff, you really have to lower the center diff a lot in a vehicle that was originally designed for a tranny. In most vehicles, this is no trivial task. It would take an awful lot of work on Mike's part to make it an easy fit all of the various vehicles. I imagine his primary goal is to make it an easy drop-in for buggies and truggies first, then migrate to other vehicles.

You also have to consider that most folks running an E-Revo or E-Maxx with the stock plastic chassis are not going to be willing to buy a $130 slipperential and a mount that may run in the $75-100 range. Guys that do will certainly be in the minority, but with that in mind, I've got to think that providing mounts for the plastic chassis of those vehicles isn't high on Mike's priority list.
