If I read the charts right, it comes up as a 1979 800 - 80HP.

The cowling says 850. and 85 hp. But it could have been a frankenmotor The guy I got it from could get a vibration to go away so he sold it as a parts motor. it is a tiller jet. I figured out the vibration. Flywheel Mount/timing pulley was loose. It runs pretty good but I think I just need to adjust timing and carbs for a better idle and quick response.

I just figured out that I wasn't getting full throttle I just readjusted the linkage and I should be able to get full throttle. Yeah Baby Too Much is just enough.

The pic of the serial number isn't coming through. So I was using the SN you posted. You still need to figure out what you have for getting the correct parts. Try using Phototbucket or another photo hosting service.
