I gave my Compact C9 a spa day & plan to "supercharge" it.

I am replacing the original Ametek motor with a high-performance Ametek 115923 motor; & plan to put in a new PN motor.

Which PN motor should I use? It came with the original Eureka-built PN; even the lable is intact. How can I replace the PN motor without poking holes on the lable?

Thick shaft PN motor

Cogged belt PN motor (Too expensive!)

A geared belt PN motor uses a cogged belt that lasts longer

Do thick shaft PN motors give higher brush roll RPMs?

I might also put in a VibraGroomer brush roller

If you want to use a Vibra Groomer Brush Roll your going to have to use the regular tick shaft motor . Cant wait for the pictures of your compact when its done please post pictures of you giving your compact a spa day as i have the same model and would like to give it a spa day in the near future ,
