I rebuilt my wife's old stealth.

Well done OD that looks very smart. was the motor a straight fit ?

Yes and no. This motor is slightly shorter than the one that was in there. But this is a good thing as the collar of the shaft protrudes out from the casing as there is an actual bearing or collar on the shaft. Also the stock spindle is so deep that I had to set the motor farther back in the case. So the slightly shorter motor was a blessing as in the end it was a perfect fit. The power band is totally different now too. It feels much more solid and less like a rattle can. It still isn't nearly as cool as the Swiss, but it is much much better feeling than a stock stealth. If you have a stealth I would seriously consider swapping the motor out.

Any links as to where to buy these motors?
