The "motor heat issue" so many seem to be having appears to be directly as a result of trying to get away with running a belt-driven car (with its higher drag) off that puny stock motor, along with not taking the time to go through the build and making sure everything turns smoothly and the gearmesh is good....all the guys that have dropped in a BL system (regardless of whether it's a 20mm or 28mm motor) seem to have no troubles at all.
