Simple RSG Question

  If an originally 1725RPM motor, which has had its rotor milled, now
runs at 1800RPM, is it for sure salient pole and suitable for
synchronous RSG operation?  Can too little or too much of the rotor be
removed so that the motor runs at 1800RPM but not be suitable?  I have
read that if too much is removed that the motor will have little
torque and might overheat but is there other problems that might occur?

  Thanks.
