Finished the machine work on the rear float bowls by adding the fuel passages.

Scratch carburetor off the list. Thanks to Mr. Bob Farr I was able to get a piece of brass to make the barrels. Everything is made except the throttle lever and the gaskets. I think I'm just going to wait until everything is done and make gaskets for everything all at one time.

The screw to the right adjusts the fuel and is adjusted at full throttle. The screw in the center will adjust the air bleed to lean out at idle.

Awesome job, Steve. Can't wait to see a video of it running.

Scratch the crankshaft off the list. I made the main bearings and installed the shaft. It is a bit snug but it will seat itself in no time. There's going to be a party tonight.

Made a few more parts. I couldn't find a cool looking oil drain screw so i made one.  I didn't want just a plain hex head screw.




I also made a PCV valve. I'm not to sure it will do anything but what the heck. It is a stem with a cap. In the stem is a 1/8 inch ball and a spring to help seal when the crank case goes negitive.

SNOW DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Finished my pistons on this fine day off.
I made a few spares in case I made a boo boo. All are useable. They were made from 7075 if anybody is wondering. I had a piece so I used it but 6061 would have been fine also.





I also had time to make the motor mount posts. They are the same as the Peewee mounts. I think I detailed how they were made in that thread.
