Actually, it looks like those siamese motors have the shaft of one going into the back of the other, and then the second shaft sticking out the far end. That would be easy enough to mount to a transmission. What I am talking about is a motor that doesn't have the ability to have the shaft go into the back of the other. So both shafts are facing each other. Each would be spinning in opposite directions. http://endless-sphere.com/forums/download/file.php?id=16170
