Well, two 80 turn motors will draw the same current as one 40T motor....so anything that will handle a 40T should work fine. The Castle Creations Sidewinder would work perfectly in your truck.

it can be used for brushed or brushless. for brushed you just dont use the white wire.

Yes, you should have no problems with two 80T brushed motors and the Sidewinder ESC.

The Sidewinder (like most ESCs) cannot handle dual brushless motors...
