It's an early engine - the mounting flange is below the level of the crankshaft, has a big heavy flywheel, flywheel held onto the shaft with a gib key ( not a taper plus nut) , a mixer rather than a carb, and has a female pipe thread exhaust ( later engines used a flange Trying to take off a well rusted pipe from the engine usually meant a cracked water jacket. So, if you do try to get that pipe off, please be careful with it. |
