Finally located the engine tags (nicely hidden behind the generators) They are ZXBs.Of the three I picked up at Portland, two are free and should run once I locate manifolds and carbs. Why people take parts from running units I have no clue!!!!! The 3rd is parts only. I'll be disembling this one for anything usable. Bottom end is likely ok, but block is questionable. Really won't know until I get the pistons out, clean up the bores and mic. But I expect the head, generator, govenor, crank, rods, pistons (maybe), cam, oil pump, water pump, radiator(maybe), and accessory drive/cam gears (assummed to be gear driven) are good. I'll have these for sale/trade after a bit. Need two manifolds and two carbs (preferrable from the hobart 1200 rpm applications) for the two I want to restore. Starters would be nice too, but a hand crank will work for now. If you have, or know of any leads on these (manifolds, carbs, starters, or Hobart application hand crank, or entire units) please let me know. Dave
