Hey Rick and all,  we might add the time wasted fiddling with that  

car engine.

I could have built two airplanes in the time I spent on mine.

As far as the suzuki is concerned, the engine has performed flawlessly

with the exception of a possible carb ice one morning early on before

I had crafted a little water heated manifold muff for it.

The weak spot is the redrive, getting the bearing preload just right

on the Raven reduction.  The russian made gear reduction might

have saved me a lot of trouble although they are a bit heavier.



I've spent my whole life doing things my way (wrong) the first time.

Not going to change now.

BB, getting warm enough to venture back in the shop for some more

fiddling on the Kolb.
