I know alot of you fellows follow the other forums. I haven't been up-to-date on posting the progress on this engine because of the amount or work involved in posting elsewhere. I thought I would post some information on how this project is going. I have all of the major components made. The ignition and exhaust remain along with small odds and ends. I have the engine assembled for fitting the intake manifold and mainly just to keep everything together. As you can see from the photos I have accomplished a lot. With any luck I should be able to see if it will run around the end of March. George |

The next few shots are with the engine assembled and the intake manifold fitted. |

Within the last few days I have finished the engine base/motor mount and the carburetor. Although the carb is just a simple air bleed type I wanted it to look like it was made for this engine so I prettied it up by adding dummy pieces to it like the float bowl and upper barrel and cap. The upper cap was made to look like the cap on a motorcycle carb that holds the slide and spring in place. On my carb it is set screwed to the throttle barrel and will serve as the throttle link. I even went a step further and added a dummy cable adjuster to the top. |

Here's the final pics of the carb. George |
