Upgrading G16 electric motor
Wanting to upgrade motor, get more flat speed. Used mainly for city streets. Any recommendations? Looked at plumquick motors, but the numbers are confusing. Needing more info from guys with more experience.

Re: Upgrading G16 electric motor
Any upgrades involving feeding/using more amps, might as well plan on doing a upgrade to F&R switch (i wrote a piece about that, or ScottyBs reversing contactor), then motor controller, then cables, stock solenoid is pretty tough (200a continuous/600a peak). This performance game is a slippery slope, if you know what i mean.

Re: Upgrading G16 electric motor
Where would I find an upgrade to the f&r switch? Also what type of controller would be recommended? I've sent my motor to plum quick, so in the mean time I want to replace the other items. Thanks.

Re: Upgrading G16 electric motor
Heres the link to my upgrade idea. http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/elect...zgo-parts.html. if fabrication is not your thing get a reversing contactor from ScottyB at WWW.CARTSUNLIMITED.NET instead. for a controller, i would go with a Alltrax SPM or SR, 400a or larger.
