Hurricane Ida has killed my old Black Max generator, and I am looking for a reasonably priced replacement generator head. It is a Powermate PM0496750 (6750 running watts), and it needs to match up with my Honda 13 horsepower GX 390 engine, which has what looks to be a 5/8" x 7/8" tapered output shaft, length of taper at about 1-1/4". Doesn't have to match the exact wattage as my old generator head, just in the ball park. Even better if it will bolt up to my current bell housing. The only one I have been able to find online is over $1,000, which is more than a whole new generator. Any ideas?

You might be able to find a used or "for parts" generator that has the GX390 engine, like this on on ebay:
Personally, I'd just upgrade to a good inverter model and try to sell your gen for the engine value.

Good question. Maybe a couple hundred bucks if it runs well. You could try contacting James Condon by email and see if he has any ideas for you. He knows a lot about generator repairs:
Love his channel. Best generator repair videos on Youtube IMO.
