Let me know what components are involved and I'll give you my suggestions on what you need to do to make it work. 72 volt cars are awesome if they're built right. That's why we're here, to make sure it's done right.

Excuse me for asking what might be an obvious question but do you get 1/3 more speed or torque with 72v? Does a 48v motor live long at 72Vs? How does the 120 pounds extra weight "weigh in"?
