quote jimross:

The mag plate is from a 1929 Johnson V-45 with 1 coil and point Assy removed. remove the set screw and pull it off , you probably want to replace with the missing Atwater Kent battery ignition set up with knob start. Or, you can drop a complete 1931- up Evinrude Speeditwin Assy. on it. Don’t try “U” Speeditwin as it is different taper.JimRoss

Jim, would a Speeditwin mag and flywheel from a unit even
as late as 1948, like the photo fit my 1930 Elto Speedster?
If so, amazing that something 18 years newer would fit.
Thanks.
