Borrowing a motor

I wanted to go to the car shows the Oct 6 weekend, but my motor was in the shop being repaired due to an over revving incident. Anyway, an EV club member offered to loan me one!!! It was a brand new, bright red, Warp 9". I got my motor back the next day after the show. The pictures here were taken during the swap.

There are some good views of the adapter that Ed Hendrickson made by cutting off the back 2 inches of a Suzuki engine. At the last EV meeting Bill Glickman noted that the adapter in his VW Beetle was also made by Ed the same way.

Apparently there is a problem with uploading images right now. See pics in the Borrowing a motor file at http://stormc.smugmug.com . (If you decide to use Smugmug for your own pictures, tell them that stormconnors at Yahoo.com sent you. :-) You can order prints from them or download the pics at full resolution. The slideshow is beautiful!)
