Years ago I had a Nikon F with the old F36 motor which had been modified by Forscher to run at almost twice the speed of a stock motor. I never had a problem at all with that camera or motor. I've never been at all interested in the inner workings of a camera, but I doubt that the modern digital cameras are as conducive to modifications!
