Firstly I am biased towards the Novak, but with the greatest impartiality I can give I really do think it's the most robust system, both motor and speedo. I acknowledge the 'soft' comment above though.

A sintered motor is not only more tolerant of overgearing on the track, but is MUCH less likely to have the magnetic field strength damaged by overgearing.

I have seen a fair few std Novak fans break, mine is still on the original one in the 2wd, though the X6 shell offers it massive protection. You can lower the std fan height by taking the plastic spacers out too for about 4mm lowering. You can replace it with any other fan though. I know someone using the 3 racing 30mm fan (about £5 I think) and I use a 25mm fan in my 4ed withoug any heating issues (in fact my 4wd runs cooler than my 2wd)
