It's 11 inches long and have a 10" diameter front plate.

ACgtx20 Specs:
12 KW Nominal
42 KW Peak
70NM torque peak
4,000 RPM Nominal
12,000 RPM peak

It's tiny compared to my FB1-4001A, but basically more powerful than my 96 volt DC setup.

I have no plans to put this in my Civic, but I am planning another EV, probably for 2011 so might as well get started now on the planning. I am thinking of using a 2002 Ford Escape, or Mazda Tribute. I am looking for a small SUV for the wintery drives and planning to save up over the months. I am estimating only $1800 for the EV hardware, excluding the batteries and the actual donor. And it's going to be a 156 volt LiFePO4 system, so I need to do a lot of saving up.
