I've got an old Mongoose mtb that looks like good e-bike conversion project. What's the best kit for this? Best battery?

The best in what regard? Bafang is probably still one of the best overall. It doesn't have torque assist though. Tongsheng does have torque assist and a lot of people like it.

Then there's more fancy stuff like CYC's Photon which produces 135Nm in 3.5kg.
