I ended up with two Kraton EXBs and decided to build one up using the standard 6s motor and MAX6 ESC and for the other one I decided to use takeoff electronics from an 8s Kraton.
I shimmed all my diffs per my post in one of the EXB diff threads - in summary, the rear is now shimmed to the higher end of 0.7-0.8 mm..
One difference in my build is that I used PPS' motor mount after discovering that they are right in my back yard (close enough ) and so I ordered their mount and diff mount and they took a day to arrive after shipping.
This thing is a work of art!
Made it so easy to adjust the mesh - what a shame that it will mostly be one and done.
All together with the Firma 160 ESC and 1250Kv motor:
She is a thing of beauty!
Even on 6s with a 20T pinion, there is so much torque - it will pull wheelies on command and definitely requires a gentle touch to keep in control.
