·I can help you with your motor. I have one too. The motor is a Special SepEx Motor and will not directly work with a modern controller. I have a software modified Kelly SepEx controller that will power these motors. It includes regen. Your motor only uses three of the terminals. Terminal D is not used. DO NOT use terminal D. One of the field windings is common with the armature and would be very very difficult to hunt down and disconnect to allow for normal SepEx use. The modified controller works fine but at high speeds we have not fully tested it. I have a couple youtube flicks of our test. We used a test bench rather than using it in a vehicle. My VW buggy is not up and running yet. The motor is hooked up and ready to go but the vehicle is not yet road worthy.
May I ask where you got your old Kaylor Motor Adaptor? They are well built.

Have a look at the rest of my site and the other one too while your at it. You can email me directly if you like or PM me for further questions.
I can tell you that the little motor pushed my Ghia to 62 mph at 72 volts and our first modified controller that was kinda weak. The new controller is still 72 volts but much higher amps. Should do much better on the road. One other word. The motors get hot and need a cooling cover and fan to keep the motor cool. Do you have a cooling cover for the end of the motor?
The motors whine a bit but kind of like a turbine. They are well built and built with military specs. They are very hardy. I have two motors and two spare armatures. Bearings can be replaced as well as brushes. Light weight and perfect for the VW. Did I mention that the adaptor plate is very very well built and engineered? Yup I did. I also have talked with Roy Kaylor himself about these. These were built in the 70's. I also have two original manuals from kits that were sold. These are perfect for VW Buggies or fiberglass VW cars. Like the Aztec or others. The old speed controllers used to be contactor switches. Do you by chance have those?
