Thanks Marius! The kit came with a used Align 91H. It looks to be in pretty good shape, just needs new bearings.

Does anyone know if you can buy the TM1000's sensors separately? The guy that I bought the kit from included the TM1000 module, but nothing to go with it.

Sorry that I haven't gotten back to you sooner, but I was going through my crash kit for the 700E and ended up taking a DS615 out of it. I appreciate it though.

The 700N is a little taller and longer than the 700E. Now I just need the muffler and the Boca crank bearings so that I can get the motor in.
