Hank,
yes very patient "lol" as this might not be the final version.
I have tested the motor out of the housing in a bucket of oil & established
that it could only be run at 30 Amps without overheating. It causes quite 
a turbulence running in oil with no prop on due to the open design of a rotating 
back section. It will want to force oil out of the housing & up the oil feed tube,
but I am hoping the overpressure from my oil compensator will keep the oil
in around the motor. 
Am learning a lot on each attempt.
Alan
