It doesn’t even give you the capability to switch flywheel orientation and still use all 12 bolts. I’d be surprised if the hole spacing is even equal all the way around the bolt circle. From what I can see, it doesn’t appear to be.

No, its not factory. Quit believing that it "might" be.

It’s an attempt at making a completely different brand of magneto work on an engine it was never meant to be installed on in the first place. That’s the beginning and the end of the story. Its not a prototype testing set up, it’s not a factory approved replacement for the original flywheel and timer, and it may not even have been successful at replacing the parts that were there originally.

Sorry if I’m shooting somebody’s theory in the foot, but that’s really all there is to it, pure and simple like.

Whether its a good or bad attempt is subject to opinion. If the original crankshaft taper isn’t effed up, consider yourself lucky. you might be able to get it running using this "modification", but I don’t recommend it.

Hope this helps.

Best,
