Kevin,

Thanks for this info.  Upon reading it, I realized that much of it you
had posted previously, but I had forgotten the details.  I had originally
thought that the 1800 rpm motors would lose excessive power, but I
now found that the 4 flats don't have to be that deep, so power loss
may be similar to that of the 3600 rpm motor.  I agree the 3600 rpm
motor will give a better air whipping action.
