(ET) Electric motor search (off topic)

[Stephen & Carol Welch <welches paonline com>]

Thanks to Chris T., I have a single-stage gas snowblower to convert  
to electric.  At this point I'm looking for a 12-15 amp 110 volt  
motor that will run at 4,000 rpm.  I am thinking that this will come  
closest to approximating the IC engine that is being removed, while  
still being operable from a standard household outlet.

Anyone have any good, inexpensive sources for this sort of thing?   
I've done some surfing, but the motor universe is quite large, and I  
am by no means an expert in these things.  I have noticed that some  
circular saws use motors that seem to have the right specs - I would  
just have to find a supplier...

Your ideas welcome - feel free to email me offlist.

Thanks in advance,
