Out of that selection, I would choose the Turnigy 2836 Brushless 450-Size Heli Motor 3700kv. It  is about the best if you are planning on using 3S only, however, it is a bit more of an amp hog than the KA450H 3200KV so I would use a 30 amp ESC on that one. Depending on what head speed you want, you'll also need a different pinion to the KA450H, 11T will give you about 2700rpm full throttle and a 12T around 2900 rpm.

The KD KA400H in my opinion is too small, it will bog badly.

your motor could have run out one of its two bearings.

I have no vibrations but my esc feels like it is on fire. Does anyone else have this problem im using an 11t pinion?

have a look of the magnets inside are evenly attached.
Not Turnigy, but I have had experience with loose magnets in the motor causing vibration.
