Sup yall! New here, been round' just not been postin.

Noticed a few threads asking about dual motors so I thought I would share some pics with ya.





Just finished this bad boy a little bit ago, not hard at all! Whatcha think?

Looks good bro. Always nice to see a clean and clear pic. Looks like you use all stock parts too w/ just a bend to the ZZ heatsink. I noticed it only covers half, that doesn't allow it to pop out or give you alignment problems? Well, welcome to the hood!

Thanks homie. Nah, no popping out. To keep the motors together I just mixed up a little JB weld and stuck em together, then bent the heat sink to were it would keep them down and meshing good. Pretty simple aint it!

If Im not bogged down with shit tomorrow Ill slap in a dual cell with it.

Hey Kanye, can you take a pic from the other side so we can see whats on the other side of the motor, because it looks like that motor would just pop right out when running. How's it's speed/torque etc.?

EDIT: I posted this right after you posted,(now i understand how you did it) so nice job, keep up the good work!

Best solutions are the simplest.

Very clean and nice. I like it.


How much does this increase the performance?
Don't both motors have to be running at the same RPM's?
If one is slower, won't it hold the other one back?
How did you connect the motors to the power? (Need a pic from the other side.)



Thanks for stopin' by.

Ah damn, you caught me! Me and my half assed jobs.



There is my half assed job connecting the top motor with a solder strip, tomorrow Ill work on getting a permanent way.



Again there is just the solder srip in there. Any ideas of an easy way to connect them?



Here are my two motors stuck together with JB Weld.



There are the two motors laying there without the heatsink holding them down, almost thread perfectly like that but just need to be pushed down a little.

This thing was suprisingly easy to do once I figured out how!

To tell you the truth SG Im not sure about those, I just put it together. LOL! It may possibly hold the other back but still get lots of torque, this is why i plan to hook up a dual cell, to get the speed in there too. I have barelly even had the time to drive it around so Ill have to update you guys latter on how the performance is.

I used solder strips in my monster zip dual motor a year ago and it has yet to cuase a problem. I say stick with the solder strips until you need to improve on it.

Umm solder them to the tab on the other side is my crazy idea.

Nice work. I'd go with a red ZZ gear if you're going to run two motors and two cells. You should have torque to spare, so ya might as well convert it to speed. I don't know how much flexibility you have with different idler gears though.

pretty slick man, I dig it.

if you got an opportunity to find a few clone 150 cells, I highly suggest them - by far my best performing dual cell... at least it was

welcome to the ghetto

very clean dude.

got some vids of her in action??


**technical note guys**
i doubt this will ad much to the rpms but it should make it a hell of a lot more punchy off the line. so maybe a pink clone motor and an elvis together would be a good idea.

great job! looks very clean and simple im getting bad ideas already i know my monster project would probably benifit from that.

Looks good. I see you have some know-how.

You could just solder the motors together and the hold it down with wire. I did it recently with a SS motor. It wont be as clean looking, but it works great and you can adjust one side or the other by twisting the wires more or less. Here's a pic.

Where you at in NC?

nice work, looks like it could be done with an se too. now there's a chassis that could use dual motors!
