Thank you zephyr.
I can see that the crankcase part# for the 67(and earlier) and 68 are the same. So they must be interchangeable as far as the tank/cowling mounting goes.
By base gaskets, are you referring to the powerhead gaskets? There are some differences I noted in my post, but it looks to me that new powerhead would be "backwards compatible" with the older inner flange + gaskets. As far as other gaskets go, I have looked at an assorment; carb, manifold etc. and all look to be matched.
