If they were adapted to the proper gear box they could work as well as the other size CIM. Although, it might be easier to drive through an external gear box, to get what you need out of them.
So, if you wanted a big heavy motor that would work all day long, without over heating - and you had the weight available - the big CIM's could probably be adapted.

Team 33 used A big CIM with a dewalt for drive in 2006. Iirc, it worked out pretty well.
