Question 1

Will this replace an a.o. smith 322p779?

Accepted Answer

Looks like the same pattern and close spec. Amazon sells a replacement that is substantially more expensive and I am guessing that is why you are looking at this one.  Here is the deal, first of all the bolts need to line up with your mounting holes, pretty sure they do, but this motor has extra long ones to be universal and you will need to cut them off with bolt cutters on one end..  If it is a different measurement game over, check before you buy.  Second, this is a pretty universal motor, electrically is it pretty versatile.  You do need to know what you are doing though.  There are no clear directions.  IF the previous motor was the same RPM and HP and the bolt pattern matches you are good if you know what you are doing.  Again looks like it does to me.  I would read real darn carefully and maybe Google around a bit more?  If you are not real handy, I would say buy the direct replacement as you will spend the extra time and money trying to make this one work.  Also as I have said before, look at the starter cap too while you are in there.

Will this replace the ao smith f48ad71a01?

I can't say as far as direct cross reference but it is about as universal as they get. It replaces many models.
