    Jim, Yes on the lathe. Don’t have any photos of the bottom of my flywheel,
    but it should be the same as the one below. Just realized after looking
    at that photo, that there probably wouldn’t be room to mount
    a Evinrude type timer on the top of the crankcase, as the gas tank
    mounts too close. Not sure what a "swing" timer is, but look forward
    to your suggestions.
    Thanks!

    Buccaneer,

    Do you have access to a lathe? I think a simple timer such as the ones used on inboard engines could be fabricated to take the place of the mag, or you could use a swing timer that would look more original. Please post a picture of the bottom of the flywheel. I will make a few drawings for suggestions. Having problems with posting pics right now and will be out of pocket til tomorrow..

    Thanks
    Jim
