I never heard of a submersible with a taylor made motor size, but will take your word for it. Although, if you can get a taylor made motor for a submersible, then you should be able to get one for a traditional centrifugal as well. No?

I buy pumps off-the-shelf and don't get the impeller shaved in order to hit the sweet spot, much less have a custom made motor. In looking through the catalogs the submersibles always have a higher amp draw than a centrifugal with the same capacity. If you have any recommendations, I'm in need of a submersible which will deliver 60 gpm at 5 feet TDH for less than 220 watts and less than $400.
