I hope it wasn't the generator that caused the fire. $1500 is a bit rich for a core engine even if they do come with spare parts.

Maybe it's a core for one of the $5500 twin "roids as also for sale on Ebay right now?? ;D ;D

Looks like it got pretty darned hot. To me that means scrap iron, others may differ.

I had a 16/1 burned everybit as bad. I thought it was junk and gave it to one of us, a forum member. It took him a while but it is completely restored and runs great. I had the honor of driving out to see it run, tuned it up a little for him.

Those look like micro-V groves on the flywheel......

That would make this a 12/2 LISTEROID..... not a real Lister.

I think it is spare parts for the $5500 one on ebay if I'm right!!

Now, if I'm wrong (which happens a lot), then $1500 for real Lister parts wouldn't be completely out of the question.
