Why not Arnesons? Same money or close anyway, excluding propellers.

Probably pick up a decent amount of speed as well! The Arne's will cost you more though...

Not much though. Complete SCX drives with the necessary IMCO helmet are somewhere in the $15,500 range, retail a copy. I think the Arneson to Bravo conversion is $20k a side retail and it's proven to gain speed, not the other way around, which is what the IMCO seems to be doing.
Who knows though.
