[QUOTE="turbotodd, post: 457754, member: 7376"] That motor was never offered as an electric start version, so you'll have to revise your searching. IIRC, the 30hp 3 cylinder motors' flywheel would work. But that's not all...to do a 'proper' electric start conversion, you'll need the stator, wiring harness, regulator, relay, starter, bracketry, etc. This is a very common issue....and those parts aren't going to be easy to find because of it. The boat racers love that motor (25 3 cyl) but if it requires more than one yank of the rope, you'll wear yourself out trying to start it....which is why 'everyone' wants to change to electric start. It's also why that motor wasn't all that popular in the 90's/2000's--no electric start. They were real popular here, where ducks fly by the millions in the fall/winter, but outside this general area, they more or less flopped, so they quit making them. Have you tried hydrotec marine out of Missouri? They might have some. [/QUOTE]
