[QUOTE="djdilliodon!, post: 8790243, member: 684299"] It’s most likely 8” spiders and with that motor I would stick to a 4 layer coil at a maximum of a 2” winding height. I’d rebuild it all fresh, not worth saving all the parts. It would be best to measure the factory coil using a set of calipers if you are having trouble measuring the top plate opening. This will give you an idea of what will fit. If it was mine, I’d unbolt the frame and get rid of the screws and upgrade to studs or socket cap screws. Would add spacers between the frame and motor for better cooling and would carefully sand down the top and bottom plate. Then I’d paint both plates and that thing would be basically brand new when all done. [/QUOTE]
