New motor?

While browsing Walmart for something new in spinbrushes, I came across a small diameter model by OralB.
Cost about $5. so I got one and disassembled it yesterday.
The motor is something I haven't encountered before, slightly shorter than a 180, and smaller in diameter than the 180 cans. It is round, diameter bout like a majicmarker, and doesn't seem very heavy compaired to the x-mods motor.
I made a bushing to fit its too small shaft so's it takes a factory 8 tooth pinion, then installed in a completely factory 350Z chassis(ie. no bearings or extra cells). On 4 alkalines, it was a good bit faster than a stage 2 blue setup (probably around 12 real mph), and seemed lively and light. The steering was super responsive with its light weight, and the torque was quite a surprise. Hopefully I'll check her out with 6 cells tomorrow, but I need to fabricate a better motor mount (I essentially shimmed it in the factory bracket with tape for my test runs).
Anyone know what size or name there is for such a motor?
There is no name, just numbers : N60LA3X13
Dimensions are 1.25" total length without shaft, by aprox. .5"
Anyone else try one of these?
Take care,
warren
