Oh, and by the way, the "F" version stands for "finned". This motor is technically a heli motor with a finned can so it's has the F & H designation. The heli motors have this type of end bell with the fan built in.

Oh, and one more thing . . . you're not a pain

Hope that helps.
Thanks alot, that helps heaps Reason i asked is that i'm currently mocking up my centre differential unit, but Neu have taken 9 weeks and still not finished my motor yet. So i'm using the cardboard tube out of a toilet roll, which has the exact dimensions of a 1527 motor, who would have guessed

Oh, and i think the 'F' that i stated stood for fart, as in brain fart kinda funny that i screwed that up, and i myself have an F/H motor on the way .

thanks again
jordan
