Variac as sync gap tuner?



 Has anyone ever used a variac as a variable inductor for the purpose of
tuning a synchronous rotary gap by varying the phase lag? The nice thing
about this is that it could be remotely tweaked. I realize the inductance
would probably be excessive after a point but I'm just wondering if it might
be an alternative to a pivoting motor mount.


Thanks in advanced,
