New E-Maxx looking for Lipo/BL advice

Hi all,
OK, first post. I did a lot of research recently to try and find some recommendations. Of course, everyone has their prefs. I also read the sticky. Good write-up. What I am after is a fairly reliable, longer running, a bit faster, E-Maxx. I was thinking about the Feigao 7XL as mentioned in the sticky, but unfortunately, RC-Monster does not have any 7xl's in stock. (or 8xl's). They only have 9XL's with the built in Heat Sink. I was considering going to the Novak HV set-up but most advice points towards a custom set up. Bottom line, I would like something that is going to get me 30-40mins of Run Time and will not be too fast to be hard to handle. If someone can give me a "shopping list" of items I will need to convert my bone stock E-Maxx to Lipo/BL. Also need Lipo suggestions. BTW, I will be just using the E-Maxx for cruising around. Nothing hard core. I don't want to break anything:017:

Cheers,
