A size 22 manual grinder with the hand crank modified to accept a pully wheel then attach it to an electric motor is the way to go. For a few bucks more I would get a stainless model
my buddy has a 32 like that and he mounted a drive motor setup to go with it-- a 22 size is great also. i use a 22 1 hp rig and make 10 pound batches in a few minutes-- go for it you wont be sorry

I picked up the identical #32 grinder off eBay quite a few years ago and motorized it with a 3/4 horse (overkill) motor. When using pulleys make sure the grinder you get has ball bearings and not bushings; bushings will wear out quickly because of how the belt pulls on the grinder.
Here is a few pics of mine.
I have added a stainless steel meat tray since the original build but I can not find those pics right now. Anyways if this interest you here is where I got my plans to work off of - http://www.sausagemania.com/grinder.html
