I just got back from the junk yard...i tested a few blower motors to see if they mount up to our cars. I found that a blower motor from a 1997 Chevy blazer mounts with all of the screw holes and rotates the same direction. It has a nicer connector with a heavy gauge power and ground, and i just tested it on my battery and it puts out a good bit more air and not as noisy...but my stock one i compared it with is from 83 so...YMMV the only issue is that the tube doesn't fit...i'm going to see if i can heat it up and reshape it.

The part number/tag is:

Edit: Added pics...should've done that first and typed less... ](*,)

Yes, I patched the harness/connector into my harness and gave myself a better ground. I had to rework the tube with a small piece of tube and sealant to get it to fit but it works perfectly with much improved airflow...
