Default can someone help me here?





I have this KB .40 BB 2Stroke ringed engine with a rectangular carb w/ fins on it. on the side of the engine mount it is stamped with 0062552 ..and no other markings. Looks very similar to the 4011/4050/-60. Except-- (different from all these KB's in this way)....the front cover or front case tapers down to the bearing, without that big ring at the end of the crankcase, which most engines have. , could someone please help me find out what model this might be?? Oh and if you know of any reasonably priced carbs that would be nice too!!!

Above is Ex. of front housing and head.

Also the drive washer is chromed and has kind of a collar or pulley look to it ---have seen that , but also has a shoulder or collar that extends from the drive washer about 5/16", or little thicker than an average 2" spinner--then the crankshaft "threaded" is about 1"-1-1/4" out from that!!?? was this normal in the older engines?? or do i have a df engine or CL conversion?? if using just the prop -no spinner..i would have to ream the back side<--no punn intended!!.....out larger than the front. make sense??? hope someone can help!!!
