I figure I can make up the speed with gearing and/or a faster motor. Do you have any pictures? I won't steal any ideas, honest. Just curious how things are laid out and what a BL motor looks like in there. :) What did Joe (is he a forum member?) use for the motor mount? I plan on using some 3-4mm thick angle 6061 aluminum.

The V3 with the motor mount on the tranny is what I sent to Leroy (coolhandcountry).
It's a little bit of a read, but if you get through the whole thread you'll see all of the things I did to make it the way it was.
Hope that helps!
