Anyone have a parts list of what exactly is needed to convert a hand crank version over to elect. start? I assume just a starter, flywheel and some misc. wiring.?

Thanks Kaye. Hell if I had some free time I wouldn't mind hang'n around you're shop. There isn't any telling the kind of valuable knowledge I could pick up.

When ya'll bring a new machine into the shop do you usually convert it over from a gen. to an alt.?
