I think the only mod I had to make on my TC3 to make it work was dremel one small spot to clear the wires comming out from the back of the motor. Nothing else.
If you are talking about running in Modified classes with a BL it will not keep up simply because it does not put out as much power as a very well maintained top end mod motors. It also could be the way the BL was geared. Novak BL's make tons of power in at a lower RPM than mod motors so it should be geared with a large pinion to keep it into the powerband. The huge benefit of the Novak BL though is NO maintence.. NO turning coms, no changing brushes, no motor cleaning. just drop the batteries in and go.
are you planing on racing this? if so I'd forget the BL and get good electronics and a couple good 27t motors and concentrate on setup and smooth driving in the stock class and work your way up. If its just for bashing around go for it with the BL.
