Honestly if it was me I would concentrate on the front pump. You said you going with 8 batteries. All 8 to the front with a piston and a #9 or #11 will get it going nicely. As far as it not being reinforced for hopping you should be fine as long as you stay around mid-20's. If you ask me you do more damage to a car 3-wheelin than mild hopping. 12's are fine it is what i have in my car and I lock them out, but I would stick with the 14's if you plan to upgrade suspension later.

Also forgot to add you will probably have to shorten your driveshaft an inch or slip yoke it with 14's and 16's.
