Does anyone have a part number for a 12v blower motor that will fit a '53, I've checked on some post and saw links for grainer but came up with nothing. Also just about done with the 302/AOD swap and I have been keeping a list of part numbers, prices and where it was purchased from, is there any interest on me posting the list? Maybe it will help some of the guys that are thinking of doing the swap.
Grainger no longer lists it, mine came from there and it is this one here made by Dayton:http://www.ebay.com/itm/12-Volt-DC-Electric-Motor-1-35-HP-2350-RPM-Ametek-CCC-0038-Dayton-2M197-3LCH7-/400461178111#vi-content
I bought a universal blower moter for my 53 this last winter. I got it from O'Riellys. It works fine.
I took one out of a 62 Galaxie. Just had to make the hole in my housing a little bigger but works fine now.
