    Hello again. Talked to Dave Bernard yesterday and he gave me some direction on what to look for on engine to identify. Curiosity got the best of me today and I took the lower engine shroud off and checked the serial number on engine block # 477627 it also has a Bendix magneto and after reading Tubs post went back out and it did have a # AJ 32 A carb on it. Over all engine looks unmolested and it pulls over good. Some one in the past painted it all black but luckily engine inside of shroud was not painted. Can the exact year of engine be determined from full serial number? Also information on Bendix magneto would be appreciated also how it compares to a phalon mag. I hear the Phalon is a better magneto. Also was the engine leg, lower unit and transom clamp painted silver or was it natural aluminum? Thanks again Bill,
