    This response is late based on your time table, but it might be helpful to others. Devin the Scrapper is right on target and well beyond his years. The other posts are also very valuable and could have earned you more than $ 200 in additional profits with this motor.

    For perspective, I am a turn and burn scrapper. The only time I prepare metal is when the price is down. A motor larger than a watermelon would be saved to be prepared during low metal prices. The recovery rate for smaller motors is more within the ability and profit margin of specialists and the profit is not worth the time of most individuals. With this being said, I save smaller motors for the time nature does not allow me to scrap larger pieces. Need to invent a vice that will attach to a walker.
