Presumably that is a Luna/J flywheel to refit on to the centre of another cam. It's a good conversion in my opinion with less mass to spin up. My SX fitted with one (GP stator/points/12 volt conversion) ticks over nicely. The trouble is, everybody will want one now!

Good Luck.

The AF flywheel in good nick is a nice find. I've been on the lookout for a decent all fin one too. Don't forget about the pickup box clearance issue that will otherwise result in contact or damage. That said the more recent 'low' BGM stators might be a straight fit.

Nice :)
