This exact same motor was in "Techsan"'s WattaBMR which
was in a crash several years ago and recently sold to another
EV'er looking for the parts from an unfinished project, so
he ended up with a Salvage BMW 320 EV and another 320 to
become the new WattaBMR.
I visited Michael and even have some photos of that motor.
He ran it with a 192V pack of AGMs for good performance,
since he put it in a BMW...

Looks like it's a series motor rated for 23HP for one hour, 99.4 volts,
201
amps, 3285rpm.  140C rated insulation.   Maybe a 12" motor from the GE
12?
I'm not sure of what the difference between the series and sepex motors
is, other than the obvious one of one being series and one being
sepex....  Mine is a 13" GE Sepex motor, but I've never seen a GE series
motor to compare it to.
