Weather sucks so back to the basement. I know a few other guys have replaced the Bowser motors. So I'm going to give it a try.   New kato motors should be here this week. Not sure if I'll mill out the frame or have it done for me. For the guys that have already done this what drive shafts and links should I get? James Brookman |

Looks like a fun project! Could you make the bowser mounts fit to the kato motors?

Don't think the Bowser mounts will work with the Kato motors.
I do have to mill out the frame to get the Kato motors to sit lowwe.
