Every time I see a picture of an Olympic my CSI finger starts to itch, they obviously share some of the Seagull genes, I'd just love to know how many parts are exchangeable.

Yes that's a real home made job, but I've seen that before.

So the crank, flywheel & ignition is different, what's the bore & stroke, piston design, threads, lower unit ratio?

Loads of questions Hugs (you're a very attractive young man!)

You know more about them than l do! I'll get onto it in the next decade or so. I recall the barrell is different seeing mine is rusted out. Been waiting to find donor motor or this one becoming a donor.

Spiro will find one sooner or later as they come from his town.
