At an ATCA show last summer I found a guy with a couple of 302s for sale in the couple of hundred range. I've had a number of people offer to sell me 270s when they learn I have one.

Finding these motors doesn't seem real hard. What holds me back is the expense of rebuilding and modifying them.

As for the 228 vs 292, I think I'd choose the 292. But then I plan to replace my 270 with a 454, so many will think I've a warped sense of what's right and wrong.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...
