Well I got my 8074 converted to the 8274 and put the 70865 motor. Worked great, I ordered 150' of 5/16" amsteel blue rope, then it will be test time! It sure runs the spool fast, it takes about 3 seconds to wind up to full rpm but it does really scream! Tim

I stock both motors. They run about $400. Currently there is no off the shelf solution for the drum bushings.
