Van Door motor help
It's near the end of 6 weeks and we're still debating between the Van Door motor and the Nippon-Denso motor for our arm. What do you guys suggest? I looked at the specs (which are from 2004 and 2003) and apparently the Van Door motor has more torque, but when we tested out Nippon-Denso, it seemed to have enough torque. Are the specs correct?

And another thing on the Van Door motor - we found out that the shaft on that is 7/16ths inch...And I couldn't find a 7/16ths sprocket anywhere in the NSC catalog. How did you guys solve this problem? Please help us.
