Default Dual motors on a MM

Anyone done this before? I want to wire to stock silver cans to a MM for a Wild Dagger build I'm throwing together and pump a 4S A123 battery in em.
Series or parallel, will the MM handle either?

Yea the Mamba Max will handle the two motors. I run two 45T on my super with it. I can't say for sure about the 4 A123s though, not sure of the voltage of those.

a123 cell will have less voltage than lipo cell i think they are 3.3 or 3.6v per cell but im not sure. Ive seen 4 and 5 cell lipo on a mamba max w/BEC added but it's factory spec is 2-3 cell lipo and 6-12 nicd/nimh.

I'm pulling the MM and the A123 from a tuber running a Hyperion 3025. It's 13ish volts, I may swap motors later but the silver cans are already mounted to the gearboxes.
Think I'm going for a Tuff Truck kinda thing.
If I have the connectors, I'll make a Y cord and run two 7.2 NiMHs.
