Not sure.
I was gonna say id avoid drilling the sideguards if can, I did to fit battery straps before & plastic very soft in a heavy hit I reckon they’ll pull through it. But with all that space now you’ll have plenty room for battery’s. I’m currently in process making bigger battery tray. Wasn’t quite happy with my 1st effort 2nd underway.
Even if it did fit it would not offer as much protection from debris as the Asuga sideguards even with slots cut in them for a larger motor and ESC.
On the Asuga they work well to keep debris out, because the body fits snug to the guards. On an sct, high or low guards don't really make a difference, unless the top of the guards touch the under side of the body. Otherwise debris will still fly into the chassis.
It turns out that the Kagama chassis offers both motor mounting positions, as well as all the holes for the different bracing styles. Both double rear upright tower braces, and the Kagama system. I think it can even fit the Asuga braces.
The rear chassis braces on kagama are the same used on older lwb models same part no.s but not convinced the motor mount can be put in different positions looking at drawings online I don’t see the holes for it unless there’s different versions of the chassis. If drive cup come loose id replace the grub screw so maybe not dealing with same issue again once fixed.
Put a strap of nylon hanger tape around it lengthwise screwed in place on the front and rear verticals with countersink screws facing inward and adhered on all sides with marine epoxy (marine epoxy being the only thing I've found that will effectively glue nylon). You can countersink the holes with an M3 flat head screw that has a slot cut in the side of the head and a dremel tool, the head will eat a perfectly fitted countersink into the plastic.
Nope. You are right. Just one motor position and it's more towards the rear compared to the Muraco.
The centre diff location is different on the Asuga compared to kagama chassis the chassis braces& driveshafts from Asuga won’t fit kagama chassis. The centre diff is even further back on Asuga , rear driveshaft only 112mm , kagama 137mm I think. I’ve looked at both when planning out my next build as I’ll be changing my centre diff location.
I just looked. The Asuga chassis is shorter than the Kagama's and Muraco's.

They not as compatible as the older corally models where they all shared the same basic layout within chassis, some criticised corally for this in past saying their models where all same just different bodies but plenty parts still compatible and upgrades will fit. The shiroi is basically a kagama with shorter arms, different bumpers, sideguards, bodyshell & rear plastic chassis braces removed. So if want to upgrade or add any parts just look at kagama parts. But for the kagama not many upgrades available except for 7075 parts corally do & what adu offer. Adu only company that does 7075 chassis braces & steering deck for kagama. But anything you’d want to upgrade you should be able too , only part not available for it in 7075 atm is the shock towers, I’m sure someone will make some for it but being a sc truck the shock towers more protected so maybe not as necessary as on other models.
