As a matter of interest, I took my new laser aimed temperature sensing gun out to the garage after the engine had been running for 15 minutes at a mid range speed. The top of the cylinder head was 180 degrees F at the base of the cooling fins, and 150 degrees F at the tip of the fins. The exhaust pipe at 150 degrees half way down its length, but 195 degrees F right where it exits the engine.
dsquire:
Nice to see that you have a runner right off this time, makes you feel so much better. I fixed the video link so that it would have the picture embedded.
Now you will have to build something fancy for it too power. :D :D
Cheers :beer:

Here is a video taken from the other side of the engine, and a video in which the Chuck Fellows carburetor gets an honourable mention. The crankcase vent doesn't seem to have any effect on the way the engine runs, whether it is open or blocked.

Hi Brian
I've been following this all the way through and I've been very impressed by your whole approach to it.
Great job.
