I picked up this and a clean Pioneer Holiday today at the
plowing match for 10 bucks, the guy didn't want to take them
home. Can somebody tell me what it is? Al? ;D He warned to not
try to start without the compression release.

The closest I can come is a model 797 except the top is the
wrong color according to Mike's site.

I don't see any numbers, would they be inked or stamped into the
metal?

With that comp release it'll be a 795, 797, or Super 797. Those
are the only direct drive models in that series with the DSP
valve. Should have some numbers stamped into the bottom of the
block.
Assuming no parts have been swapped around (happens a lot with
large frame Macs).............it should be a Super 797 with the
all yeller paint scheme (no black). A 795 or 'regular' 797 will
have a black tank top and AF cover.
$10 for it and the Holiday eh? You did well. I'll quintuple
yer money (and cover shipping) and you can keep the Holiday. 8)

About all I found was IPL's from 1967 and 1969 .The 1967 showed
a black top,'69 called a super 797 , a yellow top .Which is not
to say the top cover color matters because being McCulloch it
could be anything or it could have been changed .I know for
example the 105 and 125 it could be yellow tank black
tank,yellow cover black cover .All the same color or both .Makes
no sense but if you think about they couldn't figure what side
to put the starter on or what carb to use .
