Les-
        I recently had my heater core out for leak repair, and found that
the blower motor to be heavily water damaged, so I went to my local Parts
guy who let me look through his books until a domestic replacement was found
that seemed about the same size.   Made a little bracket to stabilize it and
used the same electrical hookup. Changed over the 4 blade fan ( 1/4" dia
shaft...) and it runs great.  More air than ever before.  Tip-  check the
core for leaks very thoroughly before reinstallation.   
Good luck

I have the heater out of my TR3B, and am sanding and repainting it. How can
I 
tell if the fan motor functions? Is it okay to hook it up to a 12 volt 
battery, or is there some sort of relay I need? If the fan won't work, can
it 
be repaired, or is there a source for the electric motor?
Thanks in advance,
