Looks nice and only things id do is turn the very rear pivot block upside down as it gives more kick up and makes the rear slightly better, also make the angle on the front shocks on the tower the same as the rear. Your lipo design looks very similar to my original design in cf ive been using for the last couple of years, since the trf511 came out. Ive designed my middle block with a milled bottom so left and right have flat spots higher up so i can fit brass weights in the cell holes and a brass plate ontop plus brass weights on the centre block as well as having the option on half weights as well. This item bolts to my chassis. Updated design on my tub.

Motor wise when a tensioner is fitted you can easily use a 6.5 motor, me im using a 4.5 for testing and so far havent stripped a belt.
