PS1/PS3 deconstruction

VADarthDadOGR Forum Member SUPPORTING MEMBER

Looking for some guidance/help.

I've decided to deconstruct a "donor" PS3 30-20089-1 GP-20 and put the parts in to a PS1 20-2153-1 F3 A.

The motor in the PS1 is labeled "RS 385 PH" with a brass flywheel.

The motor in the PS3 is labeled "RS 365 SH" with a white flywheel (with tach stripes). The PS3 has all the parts already mounted to it - tach board, holder, etc.

It feels like the motor mount/gear/etc. from the ps3 slips right into the trucks/gearing from the ps1 F3. Swapping all the guts one for one seems like it would be the "easiest". IE. just move the PS3 board and motors from the GP20 frame to the F3 frame without unwiring everything. Is there any substantial difference between these two motors?

Or should I keep the original F3 motors/flywheel/etc. and re-mount the tach and buy or custom build flywheel tape?

I think I will also keep the F3 CV board/lights. I assume there is no issue with this.

Thanks in advance.
