I recieved an rpm / amp data sheet on the series vs. series parallel testing on the Utah State snowmobile motor. This gragh is showing series to be at a higher current and rpm vs. series parallel and is backwards of how I feel it should be. Running in series should reduce ampers and rpm’s at X voltage and even if amp’s did go up I don’t understand how the motor is showing more RPM’s on average. I’m still looking to get some additional information as to how the motor is working with the seated brushes and how start-up speeds are effected. The graph is in excel and if all goes right it can be viewed here.

I was able to get Jeff’s motor out and had hoped it would be to him by Friday, but no word yet. I put up a finished pic of his motor but I lost it somehow sorry Jeff. This Warp frame now sports an ADC armature and brush rigging. Everything fit like it was OEM with no moding needed to allign the comm to the brush ring.

Tomorrow I’ll be driving over the mountain to have breakfast with John Wayland and the rest of the west coast wacko’s. I’m really looking forward to the EVent and will be a great time I’m sure. After the get together I’ll be driving over to Mark Freidberg’s house to look at his GE motor on a 1980 Electra van.
