Ok guys I've hit a brick wall. My father in law gave me a Briggs Vanguard 18 he bought to use on a log splitter. He didn't realize it was pull start only when he ordered it online. (I know how do you NOT read the specs?).
Anyway he rolled up with it yesterday and said "you can probably use this more than I can, maybe in that 6x buggy of yours" After using his splitter once for a couple hours he decided his days of pull starting are over.
I would like to put this all but new engine in my MaxII, but I have two problems:
1.) No electric start
2.) No alternator
Unless someone tells me I can't, I'd like to add these features. I put my group and type numbers in the Vanguard site, found part numbers for all starter parts I need as well as the 10-16 A alternator i want that should fit my engine, my only problem is the flywheel
I can't find anything to differentiate which one I need that will work properly with the stator and the starter motor. Reading on another site leads me to believe I need a flywheel with an aluminum ring gear, but I can't find any info to cross reference the stator to the correct flywheel.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

. there is an answer but its not always simple, briggs discontinued flywheel part #'s a while back. many different styles, shrouds, fans etc. do You need to keep the pull starter? if so its a bit of a crap shoot for all of it to work together. a blown donor engine would be the best way, vertical's will work and are easier to find.
