good luck
by: Anonymous

rite, pumping out amps... so basically, your not looking for a car that stores a huge amount of energy, your trying to build a vehicle that will charge a crap load and only need to exert it's self a little to move... that might work, but it's rather un orthodox. good luck to you.. that thing looks like it could pull a house if it wanted to. hope u don't blow the guts out of the transmission, remember electric motors achieve max torque at zero RPM, which means if u tromp on the gas u mite not go anywhere but the garage...

SA-200
by: Anonymous

My dad had a Lincoln SA-200. He was a pipe fitter and had it in the back of a Ford F-250. He had about 100 foot of leads so could weld a ways away from the truck if he needed to.

As far as working in an electric car, I would think it would have lots of power, but it's also heavy.

Anyway, interesting project, good luck with it.

not that big
by: Patrick L.

I know my motor looks a bit overkill but, I'm not looking for top distance, I'm looking for top acceleration. If you take a look at the White Zomby, 2 motors back to back, is perfect for the car's intended use.

Also, this motor does not arc at the brushes, remember it use to be a welder.

It was designed for pumping out amps.
