    Hey Guys,
    How diffidence are the 280's motors VS. 380's motors? The reason I'm asking is I'm get 4-280's from BC and two 380's from a friend! and I was wondering weather there was a big Diffidence there was between them!!

    The numbers are the can size (size of the motors) and have very little to do with the performance other than the larger motors with the larger numbers are generally more powerful. Numbers or letters that follow the numbers have more to do with performance (somewhat indication number of windings of the motor).
