I have just the guy to help you with parts. His name is Joe Poole & has been in business for 51 years. Tell him Jeff Register sent you. Very nice guy & had everything I needed for my KF5 build. He has the rings too. Mine was so trashed I needed to split the cases to get waterflow again. Both coils are new & had the wrong lablnations too. The magneto plate had two stripped out threads so it was replaced as will. Lowerunit had a good skeg, bad seals, impeller, housing shims & more.
JOE POOL helped me with everything. The 1949 had a different sized impeller housing, o-ring & square aluminum shim behind the impeller & housing.
Joe had it down for every part including the cooling upgrades as well. Pull up his site & give him a ring!! I have a special way to install the rings if you get into them & they are not staggered either
