CIM generator

I built a gas generator using 2 cim motors driven off the shaft of a Small 29cc 4 stroke gas trimmer engine. I am able to get a fairly decent, stable 18v out of it running in parrallel. Or at a lower rpm i can easily get 18v in series.
Just wondering. I want to run 2 dewalt 18v DC925 motor/transmission combos off of this. Just wondering if the cims will produce enough amps to power both.

I have a separate regulator to make the 12vs for the rest of the robots electircal system.

Does anyone see any problems with this? Will the cim bearings/coils stand up to this?

And does anyone know what kind of amperage i can expect out of this setup.

Thanks in advance.
