I have a friend who works at an electric motor rebuilding house that can dyno their electric motors, up to 1000 HP. (those are big motors) I only play with little electric motors, I have a 45,000 rpm spindle motor sitting on my desk I need to rebuild this morning.

I agre it wouldn't be a standard NEMA housing electric motor that you could buy from Grainger or McMaster-Carr, but it wouldn't be a too difficult proposition to undertake, given a few resources.
