Have you looked in The Parts Trader? They usually have a bunch of stock stuff.

Kevin at Rotary Resurrection has a lot of FC parts for sale.

Chris Sanders out of MI sells stock FC parts, too. His email is chrissanders@netzero.net.

Look in the for sale section of the forum, there may be something in there.

Good Luck .

Are you looking to replace a motor/motors on your car? My left one started acting up last summer, not always responding. I yanked the unit out and discovered that A) the units are grounded to themselves and B) the ground on that unit had corroded. A little TLC with some sandpaper and it hasn't given me any trouble since. But getting at the motor's rear-most mounting bolt is a major f***ing hassle.

Thought I'd mention this in case it saves you from having to hunt for a replacement (especially if it turns out that you don't need one yet.)

ttyl,
