What motor would be proper for durability, continuous use, and mounting in the stock location on a WL1200 Rigid Lathe? Stock motor is an emerson 826618 1/2 hp 1725rpm

they often use a treadmill motor with a VFD for small metal lathes

It is somewhat difficult to find, and I was hoping someone may be familiar with this issue due to the fact it is the only lathe Rigid ever made, making it a strong likely hood that someone else is intimately knowledgeable on the subject. Thanks for the help though.
