On those engines I believe the frame mounting holes are on the bottom of the shell on the inside.   Not sure if the two can motor is the same set up, you will have to turn it over and check it out....

Thanks for the info. I actually pulled apart an RS3 that I have. Other than a different truck style, the can motor set up  is virtually identical to the GP9 with can motors. However, the motorized GP9 I have has different wires coming from the existing motor to the sound board. There is a lot attached to the boards in the units. I know they communicate with one another. I guess changing everything around was wishful thinking. I'm good with general electrics but I am by no means a certified repair tech with board skills. Again, the technology is in the way on these new units out today. After taking a look, I don't want to start a project that may not end well and prevent me from getting a good sales price on the lashup. It wasn't cheap so I am hoping to break even on the thing, They were pretty engines.
