i don't know if this is the right place to post this project but here it go's

i have been working on this hit and miss engine for the last few weeks and here is were i'am as of today.


this morning i started by making new cylinder head nuts
heres the old ones


and heres the new ones


the next part to fix was the cam gear shaft, it also holds the lock off arm. as you can see it was worn very badly


the cam gear shaft is finished but i didn't take a picture of it  :bang:

this next picture shows the shaft in place with the cam gear and lock off lever in place. the cam gear shaft is the unpainted piece in the middle of the picture.


the last piece to be done was the exhaust rocker arm pivot pin


i made the new one to my own design. it has a oil hole right down the center


well thats it for now, if this is not the right thing to be posting here just let me know and i will stop this thread.

chuck :wave:

Chuck,

This is the sort of thing that should be posted here.

Anything that is of general interest to the members, and your post is spot on.


Plenty of pics and a compulsary vid at the end.

Chuck,

It's the right place.  :thumbup:

That con rod looks a little bent. Is it or is it my imagination?  :)

chuck foster:

i think i will put it in the press at work tomorrow and see if i can't make it straight again.
it only has to be moved about 3/16" so we will see.........might have to heat it as well.
