Default Park 480 replacement

I have an e-flite PT-19. I am looking at brushless outrunner motors on Hobby King, but am not sure how to translate a Park 480 Outrunner to the stats on Hobby King. Can you help me with these conversions, and how to select the right size motor on Hobby King for my PT-19?

An E-flite 480 is 87g/250W... so this is about the same.

I recently tested the 1400Kv version: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showt...&highlight=ntm

Look for similar motor weight, Kv and amp/watts limits... if all those match up, then you should have a closely comparable motor.
