    I have several of the Gale built 5hp models. They use the same setup as the 5.5 & 7.5hp motors you’re use to. You can look up all the parts that are missing on MarineEngune. You may even have some left over from scrap motors? Good luck!

    Thanks Dan, I also came home from Tomahawk with two (to make one)
    1960 Sea King 5 hp models, and it appears that they may use
    the same carbon seal assembly……. I hope so, all those part new on M.E.
    are over $100.
    Compression is 62 & 63 psi, marginal at best, so whatever I do I’m
    just throwing money out the window……. but I’d like to hear it run
    at least once before it goes back to sleep!

    Prepare to be boarded!
