    Converting Nitro to electric?

    Hey all
    im thinking of converting my nitro tunnel hull cat to electric as the motor is stuffed, its an abc plastic hull that weighs around 1kg(give or take a few grams) and its dimensions are 290mm wide and 1090mm Long.(heres a link to what it is https://www.rcplanet.com/Kyosho_Lamb.../kyo41461b.htm )
    What would you guys recommend for a brushless set up in terms of motors, Kv, Esc's and props?. i would like around the 80-100kmph mark out of it, as i reckon this hull can take it easily(and be be stable), its currently running an inboard outdrive system , which i think i would like to keep for ease of use/ budgetary constraints.
    Please as i miss running this boat alot
    thanks
