I used to run nothing but Putnam Mods for this last season of racing. He has some real fast stuff. But unless you personally know him, it takes a few weeks to awnser you e-mails, customer support is good, not the best, but good.
His motors are also real expensive. I spent over $300 on 4 mod motors and 3 extra arms, and that was paying for the motors at cost. It wasnt cheap.
I have since been sponersed by KC Racing and I am real happy with his stuff. His motors are faster and much less expensive. Kenny is much easier to get a hold of.
Most of all, at least for modified, is to find someone who can build you what you want, and or has a good idea as to what to reccomend, and is easy to get a hold of, for whatever reason; brush setups, timing and roll out help...
I ran the Putnam brushes in my Monster motors, and never had so much power in my life I have an order with them now, and will definately give feedback as soon as my motors arrive.
I dont know Todd, and he answered my e-mail within a day.

Couldn't say it better myself!!
I will talk to him about people not being able to get in touch with him. It has never been a problem for me or the people I send to him.
Besides that, his stuff is so good it's worth waiting for
I just got a couple of putnam stock monster motors and a few pairs of green shunt brushes. Have any of you had any success with comm drops like Tribo or Speedjuice? I am going to try them out tomorrow night at Socal.

I have tested Tribo several times on Putnam Brushes and it ALWAYS causes severe pitting of the brush face.
The Motors do seem to run ok on the track(not faster), but Dyno (Robi) testing has always shown a several watt power loss with the Tribo.
