Need engine identification help!
 
I have a Kawasaki gas engine conversion that I need help identifying.
There is a label on the engine that has:

TA51-MX
Kawasaki Heavy Industries, LTD.

I have tried the Kawasaki web-site with out any success. Most likely it is a discontinued model. It is very large and heavy, apprx. 7 lbs without the carb, coil, and exhaust down spout attached. The back of the crankshaft (opposite end from the flywheel) protudes from the case apprx. 1/2" and has a 5/16" slot through it. A couple of fellows think it came from a leaf-blower, but they are not sure about that. Ankybody out there ever seen one of these conversions? :confused:
