Hahaha.. Of course I'm not going to find a salvaged Warp9. I only wish.. as for stealing it.. hmmm.. tempting..

I was thinking that there was a chance of salvaging an engine from a forklift or other source that might yield some decent output. But if it wasn't possible, I would spend more on a better motor.

I want it to be an economical build, but I don't want to cheap out on vital parts that might cost me on the long run.

All input is greatly appreciated, so keep them coming!
