:ddb: :ddb: :ddb: WAY TO GO TOM :ddb: :ddb: :ddb: that is one very nice engine, it has a fair kick to it when it fire's. you must have very good compression. chuck :wave: |
| Bernd:
:lol: :lol: I don't know Chuck, I wouldn't stand behind Tom if you think he's got good compression. :lol: :lol: Now the engine, yeah, I'd say it's got darn nice compression. Very nice Tom. Going have to check out your build over on HMEM now. Regards, Bernd |
| OKTomT:
Thanks it has less then 3 to 1 compression but it has a 6 inch stroke in the video above I have the timing at about 30* atdc. here is a video of the first start at tdc I am really surprised how well the slide valve seals but its slow to open and close . Tom |
| Bernd:
Tom, I can now understand why those old auto's they showed bounced around so much when they were idling. :D Looks like you need to bolt that table down so the motor doesn't dance all over the place too. Bernd |
| OKTomT:
I took Bernd's advice and bolted her down before she ran away. :thumbup: Built a mixer and coolent tank and got it running a little better . I still need to plumb the tank. happy holidays Tom |
