Hi Steve-- Just a bit more clarification. The motor I pictured that is mounted on the board is the one that I believe will work for you. It doesn't have the speed control/on-off shaft I referred to in the other post, but you can see where it would screw in. It also needs a couple governor weights/springs.

Thanks Brad - that motor does look exactly like the one I need!

OK, sorry I'm late on this. The AJ is the later 2nd style one. It uses the conventional motor. That's the one with a horizontal 2 ball governor, cast iron bedplate casting, and AK markings. However, not all of these motors have that marking. Glad that Brad is able to help with the main parts. The smaller ones such as the governor weights, screws, and push-pull speed control can be purchased from Ron Sitko. Fortunately, these motors are easier to get, along with parts. The vertical governor AJ parts are tough to find. If I can be of further assistance post a reply or PM me.
