That’s not a Sportwin, that’s an RS Fastwin, late ’27. The early versions used the Model N style lower unit, the later ones used the TS style with the centrifugal pumps. That motor has an intake manifold. The muffler is correct for an RS.

I emailed the owner with the correct information the last time he posted it, but he didn’t update anything.

WELL worth the money if you can pick it up.

Tom beat me to it…. but yeah, Looks more like a Model "R" than it does an "N", to me at least.

Lower unit, exhaust, cylinders, and intake/carb assembly all look like 1927 Model "R" four HP parts to me.

Best,

worse looking motor, lots more money than the RS
