1.8x991 or 1.8/911.

You don't say which end is driven.

For a mill drive it's not going to be 1/8

991RPM in to 8/1 gearbox gives 123.87 output to pinion

Girth gear / pinion ratio = 6.95

123.87 / 6.95 = 17.8 mill RPM

If we use lyn's suggestion of a gearbox ratio of 1/8 the mill would be a centrifuge rotating at 444.8 RPM!

If the pinion is mounted directly to the motor, 991 x 23 ÷ 160 ≈ 142 rpm of the mill.

If the 1:8 is an additional gear reduction between the motor and the 23T pinion, then the mill rpm would be about 18.

As I said 17.8 rpm which would be about right for a mill.

I'm just going on past experience with them.
