Default Time to upgrade Motor and Servos

Hello fellow Blade 400 fliers! Its been a great summer flying my blade400 thanks to all the friends here who've helped me in many ways. I cannot thank you guys enough.
The time has now come to upgrade to metal geared servos and a new motor that I can replace the main shaft and bearings. I've now got two blade 4003ds and I want to upgrade them both.
I'd like to get either a scorpion motor or a blade 450 motor. I'd also like to get some new metal geared servos, perhaps some hitecs since I've heard soo many good things about them. What would be my best options along with a new ESC suggested. Also, would I need a new motor plate for the scorpion motor?
Thanks and happy flying ! !

I have and the Hitec HS-65mg on my B400. Good servos for a reasonable price. Still using a stock motor.
