Re: LHD Seven
The connector pipe between the header and muffler is done. I machined the hardware (with lock nuts) and made a gasket too.

Re: LHD Seven
Thank You!
I got the ignition parts back from the grower. I'm impressed with what he could do with my files. The coil actually slides onto the mount as a full sized one would. I still need to make some hardware and the decals. ![]() ![]() |

Very cool engine. All the little milled bits/bolts make it look like a real thing.

Re: LHD Seven
I installed the engine; it might stay, or it might have to come out if I can't get access to everything I need to attach to it…

Re: LHD Seven
I fully expect this to fire up and run when you're done, it's that detailed. Any idea what octane it will need to run on?
