Default What motors should I buy for twin motor a Berg setup?

Friends:

What motors should I buy for twin motor a Berg setup? Please tell me what pinion gears to get on them if the motors don't already have them. I'd rather not get the Holmes motors due to the irregular availability and some of the complaints I've read here. Do I need two Castle Mamba Maxes or just one? Also what Lipos or other batteries would you recommend?
I'm looking for off the shelf but quality items. Also please suggest where you would get them.

Thanks amigos,

Migs

Check out the Team Brood motors or JP Customs Warrior line.

45t or 35t holmes handwounds FTW! I would go with 12t/13t with 35t's and 13t/14t with 45t's. you can check out Holmes motors by clicking on his link in my sig. As for Dig. Go with the punk R/C unit.

Thank you Bigflex!
This is what I got:

Product Price Quantity Subtotal HH-HHH45. TorqueMaster Pro Handwound $55.99 2 $111.98 pinion-rrp-48p 14t. RRP 48pitch pinions $3.80 2 $7.60

Any further advice? Any battery suggestions? I have a Castle Mamba Max. Will I need two?

Thanks for your help!
