Hello Tony
I would like to have one of those motors. I'll e-mail you to find out if you still have them.

I think I have a problem! The shaft size of the motor is .786" or 2 centimeters. Comet clutches come only in .750" or 3/4" the drive shive on the clutch is a extruded piece. Got any suggestions.

Tinman,
The comet clutches are also available with a 1" bore, so you could run a sleeve.
You can find their webpage and tech info here

---John sorry I couldn't get back to you any sooner, I have been out of the country for three weeks. Had no access to the internet.

I just measured the engine that I have and it measures .750. I'll get in touch with the importer and see why there is a difference.

---Tony.

Default Temecula

Hi Tony, Are you in any risk from the wildfires? My other buddy in Temecula got evacuated but apparently they saved his house and we assume his 30 Packards and Imperials.
