@bicketybam, a smart calculated decision on your part.
See how the stock 4985 size "can" 1250 KV works with 200amps first. Play with the gearing while you are there and upgrade the motor based on your findings. Because right now, you cant determine if you want to increase the Motor KV or lower it to get it where you like it.
For reference, the DBXL-E 2.0 uses the Firma 160amp with a Firma 780KV motor at 8S. The Final Drive is different. But running weight is comparable to the K8S. The Stock Firma 1250KV may actually do the job with the Max5/200amp. Enjoy.
