Need advice and help overhauling a couple 580 5-ports

Hi All,
I am looking for some help and advice to get a couple 580 5-ports which I have up and running to put on my swoopster sprint dual. I have a couple good candidate engines, needing original cast recoils,cups and a general overhaul. Probably need seals,bearing,spark and timing work etc. They will also need clutches which I assume Jim Donovan can provide, as they were run direct drive on the swoopster originally. I expect that is why they have no recoils. Any help with parts and good rebuilder would be greatly appreciated. I just have no experience with West Bends. Always have run Mac's
Thanks in advance for any help. Mike Anderson (317)729-2418 fleagle14@embarqmail.com
