I'm currently using this gearbox in my 251 build and it's a nice little piece for the money.

However a few things to warn you about.
1st it's open on both the top and bottom so you will need to cover it so debris stays out.
2nd the motors are 4 volt max motors so you need to either get higher voltage motors or figure a way to cut the voltage going to them. I'm running a 7.2 volt battery to an IBU2 that is turned down to 60% forward, 40% reverse power.
