It really bothers me
that I can't find a way to upgrade my Grizzly to a better motor.

Just a thought - have you considered geting more power out of your existing
motor?
You would need to talk to a specialist, but AFAIK you can have motors
rewound to produce more power from the same size.
You might though have problems with extra heat etc.
The upside is that if you reuse the existing chassis for the motor, it will
fit into the lathe without modification.
