EV West Electric Motor Accessory Plate Installation Video - Power Steering, Vacuum, AC Compressor 

This company is single handily keeping old cars going and boy do they go!

Matt, without a doubt, the safety glasses stole the video.

Incredibly simple implementation. Brilliant. The modular potential is evident. Going to look up your stock.

This is over the top man! What A motor! THE WORLD NEEDS MORE INFO ON THIS MOTOR!

This is awesome! Nice build and answers a lot of questions I had.

I know nothing about cars or how they work but this is a very good tutorial. A couple more and I can start building my car myself.

It is one of the best this guys of the EV West. I am a disable person on a wheelchair and I have a Merc Class R , 4Matic, and I think to use the EV West engines with all that accessories. What we can say; Awesome.

You guys are doing some incredible work, keep it up!

good video. I liked the step by step introduction to the accessories plate. Good info. Thanks.

Well put together and constructed . Fine solution for the DIY car conversion

excelente vídeo, ya con ganas de iniciar la conversión de mis coches en Honduras

Thank all the heavens for ev west! I cant wait for my swap!

Awsome video. You guys are really outstanding explanaing. Thanks

Good video, great info and not long enough to snooze lol. I like what I see.

Beautiful set up, it is just so clean. If you were running an open styled vehicle, say a VW rail buggy. You wouldn't need an A/C pump, so could you use that position on your mount for something else? Awesome video by the way.

fantastic peice of engineering. great work guys

thanks, good instructions, good video well done.

Wow nice design and cool explanations👌

Sweet Matt, Excellent idea in a very nice looking and functional package.

Nice. I can say that is full conversion.

This "EV WEST" electric motors kit, is the best kit bar none. I haven't seen nor heard about another electric engine kit that comes with a full hookup for all your accessories, like the AC unit,Power steering pump, Power brakes, and after every unit have been installed you can barely hear the engine running when the engine has been engaged. Grady Tatum....

Great content for a novice, thank you

excellent job guys, well engineered

Great setup, okay I got dibs on that one!

Looks Smooth!

beautiful stuff guys!

Great video I really liked it easy to learn keep it up boys

I have had just finished the engine of the engine & I have seen the ad !!

man i wish i could afford that set up...so nice!!!

Great vid, thanks.

This is beautiful...

Great vid - more people are going to covert their cars to all electric. Good job.

Good job and vary well explained.

Nice video and guidance thanks bro👌😀

You guys rock !

Looks like a nice set up , what I can't understand is how would the power steering pump work when the motor is at lower rmps like when you're trying to park the vehicle. The AC compressor could continue to run while the car is at a standstill but you have to put the tranny in neutral and rev the motor up a little! 🤔

That's a sweet system.

Great idea Superb Thanks.

Good video!

realy nice , i need one

Cool concept 🤓

That is awesome

I love your stuff. That single-motor-setup you present here, would that motorize a 70's Caprice as strong as a typical 350/350engine-Combo?

A lot of you are correct this is a very nice setup it looks very nice but don't forget there is a massive amount of strain on that front bearing, you will be replacing that bearing in just a few years. I know this for a fact because I made the same setup with a warp 11 motor and the bearing started roaring within about two years. You're better off making those pumps electric and running them off of an alternator and 12-volt battery.

Brilliant! Would have liked to see the actual mount location of the AC unit. Need to move the camera a bit. But great job!

Good Video Mr, congrat's 👽

That's some tasteful piece of design

una cosa es clara... solo necesitamos la batería del "terminator " todo lo demás ya lo tenemos casi resuelto

Is its better to use separate electric motor for a/c.

It's nice that options are happening, but they are obviously imperfect. Electric assist power steering is one change I would make. I would also give up on aircon. For winter heat, I would get one of those instant hot water heaters from a home and have that in the dash. Those things are great.

فعلااا أنت فنان في هذا العمل ..

That's my accessory plate!!! put it in a box & ship it over!!!

Excellent

That's cool

That's a slick setup for those accessories. I was wondering how one would tackle adding them in an EV setup. Having said that, they only work if the motor is spinning, and the motor only spins when the car is in motion/under throttle. So, if you're in a parking space and need to maneuver the vehicle, you have no power steering, AC or power brakes, because you're essentially at a stand-still. Once the vehicle is moving at any speed above 5 mph, power steering becomes moot anyway. Might it not be better to have a smaller accessory motor that constantly runs when the car is on to power these accessories, so they're available regardless of whether or not the vehicle is in motion?

greetings, I want to ask how goes the engine and the whole kit and where I can buy it?

After reading all the nitwits comments. It depends. This is a purely electric set up. There is no gasoline engine running it. I hear the comments about “ would not electric be better” this is electric! You don’t need AC compressor or power steering or vacuum pump while you’re sitting still you need your fan to blow through the evaporator to keep you cool. The electric motor that replaces the gasoline engine runs a belt that runs these accessories. Sitting still there is no need for this motor to run. Otherwise you would just be wasting battery power. Someone mentioned selling the RPM at 750. That is a waste of battery power. The second you put your foot on the Excelerator all these Accessories work as needed.

Would recommend blue loctite on all those bolts

Nice. The only thing I may add is lock tight to those 4 mount screws.

men, this is so Cul l love it.

Thanks

Greetings, friend, first of all, thank you for your contribution. If the engine is going to have accessories attached, the engine at idle should be at 800 rpm, or when it is stopped, should it work at 800 rpm?

Faraday's law would indicate...that the energy it took to sprin that alternator *resistance follows energy draw" would be more than what the alternator produces. SO....maybe a tiny biodiesel generator could produce electricity to charge the battery bank..giving you a longer range. You could hook a few expensive solar panels to the vehicle in a aerodynamic fashion, aslo charging the banks. Regenerative Braking could also add to the vehicles range. These are all good ideas.

What a great clean retrofit tutorial, this is right up my ally and like to know more , Reading comments on what to expect when vehicle is in stationary position ,sometimes it’s necessary to at least have the power steering pump still operating to allow easy turning capabilities,with auto trans this could be achieved by setting the motor in an idle position , is this possible with the crank sensor configuration to adapt to the vehicles existing electronic modules or is the power train module obsolete once this motor is fitted ?, I guess this could be also achieved with manual transmission systems as well providing clutch is depressed just like a aspirated engine ,I think it would be a different feeling riding the clutch and having no stall effect , what laws do you think are implemented for this type of setup ?, i recon it could easily not be required for smaller vehicles with less steering force than compared to a SUV ,I’d be happy with that outcome and to be realistic this awesome retrofit is perfect for the small size car , less weight to pull around giving better mileage and bang for you electric buck !, look forward to any comments and how a possible auxiliary power steering pump could be the better option , hey what do the Vw and Audi vehicles do to overcome this power steering issue when their vehicles are set in MHD and turns engine off whilst stationary at lights , Am I looking into deep and most vehicles you can still turn the wheels with a little bit more effort ? DK from down under 👍

Super God bless you

Hi Matt real nice part I would like to know if you make adapter plates to bolt to transmissions and a transfer case for a 4x4 set up.

This mounts on the other side of the motor, not affecting the transmission mounting. It only adds about 2 inches of length to the front side of the motor.

That is great !! I was wondering about the standalone a/c units like in the Prius, would they be more efficient ?

How about buiding a QC pulse motor connected to a 48 v 10 s with 14 magnet Missouri wind and solar to charge the batteries with static and radiant energy?

Thanks, that was first of all the videos I have watched where accessories were even mentioned? I know with today’s modern cars that this is something that shouldn’t be excluded in a conversion. You have a source of supply for these, or are you the supplier?

Don't forget to add the alternator, and change the voltage regulator in it to match the battery voltage.

Awesome set up... nice a silent, and around how much to place that in my old 2003 toyota camry.

you got me hooked !!!! do you have a company website for the price listing for each assembly? and even regarding the solar main charging system keep up the great info and tech. great innovation

Do you guys do hybrid conversions? I have an idea that I think has a strong potential that I will share. Think of 4wd pickups. They are all across the country and popular for great reasons, but not known for efficiency. I say, remove the v8 & put in a v6 with a 2wd style tranny. The rear wheels will stay gas powered. on the front axle, attach the electric motor, maybe with a multispeed transfer case. Use one of the ABS sensors to feed data to the electric motor control unit, so both ends spin at the same speed and maybe so the electric kicks in automatically is it senses loss of traction in the rear. Battery packs could be stuffed into the sides of the bed. I bet a lot of folks would get excited about that!

slick!

hi guys, can we have an alternator on this system as well??? Just asking, I hope its not a stupid question. I'm only learning your system. Its the most amazing object I've every seen. Thanks guys

Hey, im planning to start an ev project next year, im looking for a setup that would be powerful enough to take it to the track. I was wondering what the cost of such a build would be?

Alternator could be used to turn headlights and dash radio and buttons to keep 12v battery chraged?

What about the heating part in the winter, the kit you installed comes with all the parts and dose it install in the front or the back of the motor

I’d replace the ac with a mini genny to help recharge the cells and increase range or maybe so kinda overboost/current function would awesome 😎

Hi a question, on this adapter you ca put also a alternator..right ?

You would have to have a manual transmission with this and set it to never drop below 750 rpm even at a stop (clutch in or neutral). Is it normal for electric motors to have a shaft coming out the back for accessories or is that an extended shaft? shaft in the back for the trans to grab and shaft in the front for the accessory kit. I bet this kit cuts your battery life in half. a simple 12v vacuum pump that comes on when you hit the brakes seems way more efficient. I could see a kit that has multiple alternators attached rigged for 120+ volts (there is someone who did it on youtube).

Nice vid...well done....what happens to these external motors when the motor stops? Electric motors don't run like gas engines. The air conditioner would stop correct?

Muy interesante

Super sir

This setup gives you powerstearing and so on, but onely when you drive. If not, what am I missing?

The drag on the drive train caused by the alternator would be greater than the power produced by the alternator making it an inefficient waste.

i can use this motor and pulley system in an Fiat 500 (2012)? and what kind os motor is? a Warp 9?

Is this the same motor that runs the traction system? So the transmission connects to the other end?? If that’s the case wouldn’t accessories only run when car is rolling?

Do you have any setups for front wheel drives with a automatic transmission

If you are not on the accelerator will the AC or power steering still work?

How are the A/C and Hydraulic steering pump and brake booster works on electric cars ???

is there any way to set alternators instead all that to make more energy for the bateries?

Where do you put your pump for the powerglide transmission? Can it be added to this plate?

What about the power brakes? Also, would like to know is when the vehicle stops and the motor stops how the steering pump, A/C units, and the vacuum continues to work? Thanks in advance.

I have an f350 U-Haul truck what size electric motor would that take and cost? what do you for heating in the winter??

HOLA BUEN DIA QUE PRECIO TIENE EL KIT COMPLETO PARA HACER LA CONVERSION DE UNA GRAND VOYAGER 1994 TRAE MOTOR 3.3 Y TRANSMISION AUTOMATICA Y LA TRANSMISION SEGUIRIA UTILIZANDOSE PARA LOS CAMBIOS Y LA REVERSA? ESTOY INTERESADO ESPERO RESPUESTA GRACIAS

Hello, i'm very impres with what you guys are doing. I would like to know more about this. For example can you make a space to setup a 600 amps alternator?. And also if after making a full conversion Let's say I have to drive down the hill every day is there a way to reduce the speed without using the brakes in an excessive way. Let's say that I down shift to second gear, the electric motor will act in a similar way to the internal combustion motor? Is it posible to couple an electric motor to an automatic transmission? And how much money do i have to put in a complete project?

Nice

instead of having ac or power steering. can you run a series of alternators to help charge your batteries?
