yeah i looked there to but his stufh is to much and its not realy worth it.But any how i was talking about the motors that mabuchi makes they are 755size and you wont need 2 speed controls to run them and as of right now i am still trying to get my hands on a set but its so hard to find them

that article is a couple of years old. good luck finding the motors. the hard part is if you do find some 775 motors. will they have the rpm's you want. i have a few 550's and they dont reach the rpm that a titan has. i was looking at the 650 motors that kershaw has. just to make it easier. i dont want to start blowing my trans and diffs.

well the way i see it is going from 550 engines to 650 is not the much and you wont see that much more power thats why i need to get my hands on the 755 motors

Start with those and see if you find anything useful. I think they're arranged largest to smallest, starting at the top of the page. They're not mabuchi, but maybe you can use some of the lower voltage ones with a stock ESC.

Also contact kershaw designs as mentioned before.

Edit: Found some 700 size motors as well here (http://www.hobby-lobby.com/speed700.htm)
