That spacer is also the drive washer, it pinches the flywheel as if it's driving a propeller. They would need a brass cone and the press-fit style of flywheel to replace it, as well as cutting short the end of the crank.Can you pull that aluminum spacer off and mount the flywheel and collet closer?
Or what's behind the clutch bell, can that be moved closer in?

It can be done, people used to do that to adapt threaded-shaft engines which is why SG-shaft was innovated in the first place.
I thought that's how it would work. Glad you got it sorted out and installed.Alright, so it looks like some parts of the old motor are interchangeable. Once I took off the extension that attaches to the motor shaft and echanged it with the old one, the engine fit like a glove.
