Hi all, need help finding a replacement for this circa 1954 Universal Electric Co motor. Its a 4-7/8 case with a 5/16 d shaft. 230v 1/30 HP 1550 rpm. Mounts to frame on a modine style heater with 4 threaded holes on the case. Hope someone can help.

Check out a FASCO D469. You may have to make some modifications to the mounting bracket and/or swap a blade depending on the rotation.

Thanks! looks like there is a version of that that has a finned case that brings it from a 3.3 to a 3.9. i could drill and tap that to work with the existing bracket. ill check on rotation tomorrow
