Just take your time and it will all come together. I used an old flywheel as I mentioned and machined out the center to accept a 300U pilot bearing. I then had to take about 3/4 of an inch off an old transmission shaft I had to fit it. By using the bearing in a flywheel rather than the crankshaft, the shaft had to be cut down.
I used a 200 radiator, but it had to have spacers under it to raise it up for proper alignment.
Then of course I had to play with the exhaust and the air filter.
There is nothing you can not play with and figure out. That is what makes it fun.
Just remember, that engine turns a lot faster than a 123. Be careful with it. I normally never go beyond half throttle unless I am mowing with the belly mower. That thing will throw grass thirty feet if you let it.
Good luck. If I can help...let me know.
