diyelectriccar.com has tons of conversion. Something like 16k members too. My motor was a forklift motor in its past life, and was rebuilt. I got it for 100$ shipped. The batteries i used were lead acid deep cycles, from walmart! They can deliver 1200 amps for short bursts without issues. LiFePO4 is the way to go if you are willing to spend the money. They last 5x as long, and can deliver much better range (again, 5x easy).

My commuter sure isn't slow. lol. My mother's commute is 5 miles, round trip. Her subaru gets 18mpg, because it never warms up. She's on the list to buy one of my EV's, because gas is just pointless for her commute. If she needs to make a big trip, owning an EV and renting a trip car is cheaper than owning a gasser as is.

My haircut is totally traditional!
