Lol, you put a 400 lb motor in a civic and you have to invite me out to elburn to see it

been relisted:
Toshiba EPACT High Eff 3 Phase 40HP 3520RPM AC Motor - eBay (item 370297961960 end time Dec-04-09 12:54:41 PST)

I would probably look to Pauls 3 phase project for an inverter, the IGBTs are fairly cheap these days, I might be able to help sort that out (I'm in STC). Reverse enginering an existing (prius) inverter is hit or miss and not worth the effort IMHO
