Fleetwin,
I will talk to him about what he wants to do with the extra parts. Were not going to rebuild the engine at this time maybe never I just need to talk to him which I will do after I get done today with his motor. His cylinders looked to be in great shape when I had cylinder head off and the rings still has spring in them when I used a pick to push in on them thru exhaust cover while it was off. After cleaning the water passages both cylinders are running close to same temp before top cylinder was running like 15 degrees hotter.
What we have is the reed assembly for an 8hp that we can’t use on a 6hp engine block so I can sell the reed assembly for sure.
I got the NOS rings that look to be from the 80s packaging for 14 dollars a pair so 28 dollars for both sets and the 6hp fresh water block was 74 dollars basically 102 dollars for the rings and block which is great shape I will take pics and post later.
I also got the 6hp carb that is rebuilt.
I am going to put the 8hp inner exhaust tuner that goes under exhaust plate on it also today when it gets here and the new impeller and see how that does in the tank.
He is a nice guy and is physically fit and has offered to help me here do some building etc. He lost his wife 1 year ago also so I’m just trying to help him out a bit.
Thanks for your help,
Joe
