    Kirk, you are correct. That’s what I was referring to. After re-reading it however I realize Louis was referencing the legs in the many pics you all posted. Also thanks for the additional pics.

    While I’m waiting for the flywheel and sheave to arrive, I removed the magneto from my k3 model and installed it on the sea king. Save for the spark advance lever, they appear to be the same. I will have to go through the carb still in order to make it run but I’m one step closer.

    I took a green pad to the top of the crank shaft today and there is some rust that didn’t disappear. But most of it did! Do I dare take sand paper or emory cloth to it? The crank case does turn easily and it looks very clean inside.
