Hello all,

I recently purchased a General 160-2 VS Lathe. The guy I bought it from told me the tailstock was not original although it aligns and I am able to turn spindles just fine. I am looking to find a tailstock with MT2. Researching I have found that a Delta/Rockwell 46-200 tailstock is identical or close. Can anyone here verifiy that? I also purchased a 1 HP 3Ph 1725 motor with intentions of converting the lathe to a better VS using a Variable Frequency Drive. The Reeves drive lowest setting it too fast imo. Thoughts and suggestions appreciated.

David
