Bob,
An article on converting the Sunset (Samhongsa) GP-7 and GP-9 was published
in an S Scale magazine by Rollie Mercier back in the late 80's. Can't remember
the name of the publication, but Rollie was the editor (maybe it was a reprint
from a previous article). No doubt he can shed more light on this. I followed
the instructions and the AM drives worked great. As I recall, installing
couplers was a bit more challenging. Wouldn't hurt if the coupler shanks were
longer.
