so, you sheared the key after putting on the new flywheel and current stator? only way that happens is if the flywheel comes loose, since it is an interfereance fit. if the pickup was adjusted right, it would have been hit by the flywheel. either way, i'd re-adjust it. what do the plugs look like when you try to start it? did you mess with any adjustments or put pressure on the float arm? did the bowl go on easy?

Thanks for all your help and thoughts on this animal. Last night we finally got her goin. Whoever said to check the timing was right. it was at plus four then we knocked it back down to zero and it fired up one kick. And scared the crap out of all of us, didnt expect it to start. Again thanks for the help.

well, moving the plate could have done 2 things to help it start.....first, it grinds fresh ground contact for better spark, and 2nd, it can change the pickup gap clearance....try setting it back at +4 and readjust the PICKUP gap on the flywheel node. you can use a sparkplug box for thickness
