Are there any criteria on motors to determine what the torque ranges
will be ?

In the Surplus Center they have the 2.5hp 130 volts,. 6,750 rpm.
being a long skinny motor it seems to look like one for the
applicatoin.

In comparison, my 3/4 hp treadmill is short and fat. looks like a
3/4hp 110v ac motor, same 54 base.... probably a bad choice.
