Here’s a brief 10 minute video that gives a nice overview of the EV West 2 speed Powerglide transmission that runs without a torque converter direct drive to 2 coupled Warp 11 motors. Depending on the voltage and current, these twin motors can put out well over 1000 lb/ft of torque, and 600+ horsepower. We used this motor and transmission combination to power our BMW M3 to the summit of Pikes Peak in 2012 setting an all time record for street legal electric cars. The strength and reliability of this system is key. For more information regarding this bolt in drive train, please visit http://evwest.com for the latest updates.

What happened to you guys? Hopefully you got so busy you ran out of time to make videos(?) or the bottom fell out of conversions(?)., please check in a give us an update, please!!!
Pourquoi ne pas ajouter un alternateur ou autre pour recharger la batterie? Réjean
Wondering what to swap next into my LS3 S2000. 502 or E-swap…. this has seriously got me considering E-swap again…. jeeeepers.
That would be great for an off grid rv with solar!
Dumb questions can you run the powerglide trans to a transfer case like an atlas II and get 4×4? And for other applications can you run just the 1 motor for lighter every day cars?
Where did you get the motors?
will they fit in my fox mustang
Are you selling this full set up as well? I just watched another video on the furthest electric car drive? To California state capitol?
Any one … Give me some tips …. I want to build an electric car …. Any tips to share …. Any basic plzzz ….. Materials and modules ? To suggest ? …
What type and part # on those motors? thanx
Why do you say this setup is only for racing, does it lack something you need in a street vehicle? I see so many conversions that retain the old transmissions and clutches and I can't figure out why they wouldn't want to replace all that with this tiny 2 speed Powerglide. Even with a single motor on a front engine rear drive conversion it would leave a huge amount of room under the hood with the motor back were the transmission used to be. Anyone know?
hey if you have 2 use dc motor that you don't need can you give a good price for them
you cannot get an emission test on electric cars since they don't have a gas/ petrol engine. turbolq4 . It gets measured differently. Ask your motor vehicle dept.
BOY, you guys are americans…convert a landyacht to electro…a Caprice, a 50's Caddy or a Blazer/Bronco/Suburban/Sierra Classic.
LOTS of space for batteries and way cooler with that kind of power.
how much to covert,say any car
Why use pressure to keep the clutch pack engaged? Why not just replace the clutch pack piston with a ram or spring?
How much do those electric motors weigh? I think I may have found the answer to our dual ducted fan power-plants! Thank you for sharing this very informative video!
how does the gas pedal relay the information to the motor
A motor must be inside a wheel. By pass transmission and deferential.
How much would it cost for this setup
where you can buy that motor please ?
Hello friends here I present my 1st conversion from gasoline to electric vehicle. slowly, Brazil will start

WHEN YOU TAKE A RC CAR AND PUT BIG MONSTER TRUCK TIRES ON IT WITHOUT RE-GEARINGIT, YOU WILL NOTICE HUGE TOP END SPEED. BUT YOU WILL ALSO HEAT UP THE MOTOR AND FRY IT. I FOUND THIS OUT THE HARD WAY. THE SAME PRINCIPLE APPLIES TO THESE ENGINES, WITHOUT A TRANSMISSION THE MOTORS WILL FRY IF YOU TAKE OFF WITH A 1 TO 1 DIRECT DRIVE AND NO LOW GEARS (SAME PRINCIPLE AS THE RC CAR WITH BIG OR SMALL TIRES).
what the price on the motor ?
are the motor a.c. or dc what's the maximum rpm?
Sweet !, The input shaft for the tranny, did you have to make that, or is it a bought item available somewhere.??
Great video.
DO NOT LIFT the Transmission the way this guy does!!! You can really HURT your BACK!!! Always lift with your legs with your torso above your pelvis. Also, angle grinders are not sanding disks. Replace with cut off disk with a sanding disk prior to deburring. Cutoff disk can shatter.
WOWWWWW…….I just priced the warp eleven motor…..$ 3500…..approx.
Thanks bro that was awesome
Um Um Um!!!
What's the average price range for everything needed to do an electric conversion?
I wonder how much more powerful a prius would be with one of these motors in it
can anyone contract you to set up an electric motor and transmission that can be mounted on a Toyota rx 300 SUV.
Is this the cast iron or aluminum powerglide?
I think something like this in a single motor setup would be cool for like a Miata. Or some sort of mid engine set up.
Love your work! What diff and ratio are you running with this setup?
