Ok so I bought an AC motor for the Porsche. It’s not a Tesla motor but has more power than one and is more compact. I’m looking forward to doing the fitup with my subframe and if it works like I think it will I’ll have a lot more room under the vehicle. I’ll have the entire engine bay for batteries and the motor will fit where the transmission sat. Super exciting to see this get going again.
Getting ready to sell my DC motor hardware since I plan to install a Tesla motor into the car now.
Well, were moving again, so since I had not finished (or even started) the fabrication on the motor mounting brackets, I had to pull the new motor from the transmission and bolt the old motor backk on to it so that I could mount it in the car for transportation. I’ll be moving everything into storage until we settle in the new house and then I’ll move it to the new location. With a new job, who knows when I’ll have time to work on it…can’t be much worse than the last few years at this house where I’ve essentially done nothing.
This is a test of the blog from my phone sending a picture.

This post is more of a test post than anything else. Welcome to the conversion blog, and I hope you find the reading interesting.
