That motor wouldn't put out 65 foot pounds all of the time, that figure is at something like 412 amps, 48v so the motor would be under a lot of load, 10 foot pounds is 113 amps or about 5.5hp
http://www.go-ev.com/images/003_05_0...preadSheet.jpg but as I said, that Warp 7 motor is a little larger then the cheaper more common golf cart motor, but I'm sourcing it's specs because it's only .55" larger around and it's other specs look pretty close, also if someone wanted to use an off the shelf motor it would be a good choice.

why not use freon and your existing AC compressor?

I don't fallow you there, how can I use freon to and an ac compressor to power my car? aside from that my civic doesn't have A/C, it was an option but it was never added, seems like that is the case with about half of the civics of the same vintage as mine, leaving a large open space where I can bolt something to the engine block with a straight shot to the crank shaft pulley.
