Will a CC1520 fit?

[JPriami]

Im a newbie to the miss geico. Ive seen them online and havent spent much time watching what they can do. So this is spur of the moment thinking.
Will a castle 1520 1600Kv fit in one of these miss geico's?
I need to know b4 I order one of these. As I have a new castle 1520 motor and t-180 that will be crammed off in this boat for 6S.
But if it dont fit I'll have to think of another plan.
I only have 2 3S packs and 2 4S packs.
Im not happy with a boat that its top speed is under 55mph. I know the motor,esc, and two 3s packs with a certain prop should be good for 60mph

I think it would I have put a 1515 in bi Elam and fastech and that was an overkill it would fit in all of the above but would be unessasary look for a sprintcat or something

yeah I am a little worried about the 29" hull thing, But this boat just looks so neat. Aside from the gecko in a bathing suite lol. That might get a decal over it.

Plus all the weight with that motor esc and 2 3s packs. might be too much in that hull?
IDk as Ive never seen one in real life

Or I could buy another (I have two for another twin build) Hyperion/scorpion 3026 1900Kv outrunner. That will save weight. and run it on 4S with the 180 esc. would two nano tech 4500 4S packs fit in there and give good power and run time hooked in parallel? should see 60's off that wouldnt ya think?

here are a few pics of mine side by side in comparison.
il be changing esc to a t-180 il leave the motor for now it suppose to handle 6s ,if she blows no big drama just buy something else to put in it. also be replacing the receiver for a futaba use my own radio have the spartan on futaba as well,not a big fan of spectrum from previous experiences with them.
