TOPIC: Starter removal 1963 Evinrude Lark

I have searched here and all overthe internet trying to find out how to remove the starter from a 4hp johny rude. I have used Evinrude Johnson and OMC in the search.
Any way after spending several hours on this I still cannot get the starter off.
How do I remove it?
I have removed the nut and ground wires on the bracket as well as the positive lead to the starter. I remove the two bolts going from the bottom of the starter into the bracket and the screw going into the engine off of the bottom bracket however the carburetor is in the way. I removed the 2 bolts holding the top bracket to the engine but there is a third bolt with A 1/2 INCH HEAD securing the bracke to the engine. This bolt is sheilded from the wrench ( and I have just about every type of manifold and end wrench there is) unless I remove the carburetor but the carb seems to be unable to be removed unless the starter is. If this was a 7/16 head I could probably get it.
The only other way I see is to remove the flywheel to gain access. How do I do this?

I got it off I had to remove the upper bracket . I used a 1/4 inch drive 1/2 in socket thinned on a grinder with a wobble extension. It came right off. I found that one of the brushes had the wire broken and the commutator is extremely worn. i can probably get this fixed at the motor repair shop in Visalia. Of course I called my brother in Texas and he said he has a 70hp looper I can have. I just need to rebuild the carburetors and it is already sitting on my property along with a boat with a hole in it.
I may be taking a vaction in a week or so!!!
By the way what is a looper?

A " looper " is an engine that has a nearly flat top on the piston and no deflector.

The intake ports are " aimed " to loop the fresh charge in there and to scavenge the cylinder in a better fashion.

That screw at the caruretor usually had a slot for a big screwdriver to remove it, not a problem at all.
