Re: Motor Collection - Old School Horsepower
This unusual beastie is supposedly some sort of prototype.

Re: Motor Collection - Old School Horsepower
I had a good look over the MG's this evening. There are 3 which are hand engraved and signed by Mick Goddard (Mr. MG) himself - i am really pleased about that. Whilst these are great in themselves, there are also a couple which require a rebuild, but most pleasing is the performance we saw from the pair of 11 Doubles in the collection.
On our Shinwa motor dresser both out performed anything i have ever seen before. Back in the day we used to see around 26,000 rpm from our Reedy mods, all of which were very competitive indeed. Both of these MG's are showing over 30,000rpm, and that is after having been standing for what is most likely 20+ years. I'm pretty impressed i have to say!!!

Re: Motor Collection - Old School Horsepower
Turns out this one which has a rather crude '8 Spec' label hand written in it does indeed have an 8 turn Single armature in it! I had heard that there was a special order 8T MG made so it seems like this is indeed it. I sent it off for a full rebuild and magnet zap and the motor builder confirmed the spec for me. It now revs extremely well even with 0deg advance although how that wind will translate on the track I have no idea. Anyone used anything like this BITD?!

Re: Motor Collection - Old School Horsepower
Another Sagami canned Demon 27Single standard motor. These were extremely popular at club level when I first started out, and this one is in great shape. Does anybody know what the number 3 signifies on the base of the can?

Re: Motor Collection - Old School Horsepower
Very cool collection you have. The Reedy ultra sonic pic brings back memories. A friend who was an AE fanatic had some ultra sonic motors in his assortment back in the '90s. I'm just now getting back into the hobby after a 23 yr hiatus. Vintage collections of all sorts are interesting. Great thread and thanks for posting.
