Oh, I didn't measure the rotation speed of the motor during my rebuild, unfortunately. In all the research I did prior to the rebuild (=scrambling to find an equivalent motor) I didn't see any published specs on the unit either. I'd think Domenico's calculations would probably be the closest, since it is a simple 2-pole AC motor.
