i need help on re-motoring an older Bachmann F7 or F9 (i cant remember but i do know that it was in the Highballer Train set.)
I want to upgrade it because it is basically fried.

Instead of spending good money on a trainset engine, why not buy an F7 from the "Plus" or Spectrum line?  While not the best thing on wheels, they are much better than the trainset stuff.
