Black & Decker ? ;)

A picture is worth a 1000 words.....

All Lister major parts has their casting or part number on them as part of the casting, NOT stamped in..

A flywheel would normally be something like 5/1/23 or 5-1-23. I can't lay my hand on the changed numbers book to see what options were available in flywheels.

Don't laugh to hard....

Black & Decker made a short and piss poor incursion into the chain saw buisness.

One of those things they don't talk about.

So why are 150 pound flywheels on a B&D chains saw so hard to see. Hey maybe add a cooling hooper like an old drag saw.

I had a chain saw made by Clinton.
Belt drive bar with a 4:1 reduction.

So Go suck on a Rajkot Tournavis will ya  ;D

And anothing thing:
I was going to send the fluffer over to your place with a 6 pack.
Not now lol

That look like a CS flywheel, I can ionlu assume that the letters are for a foundry outside of Listers. Don't forget they had three factories scattered around for a long while, so it is quite possible that outside sources would have been used for raw castings.

Check the bore is OK and is 2", early engines had 1-3/4" bores on the flywheels.
