    Cylinder numbers above the exhaust port?

    thats what i was thinking. after Hop-sing finishes the hone he marks it then Mee-soo can run and get the right size pistons from a shelf and assemble later and not have to make a measurement.

    New tool for FP manifolds

    i originally used a smaller wrench and took it to work and milled it to the bolt head size. that way overall the wrench was smaller in all dimensions. but those still look like a great idea. especially for carbs.

    Cylinder numbers above the exhaust port?

    i cant see the "0 0" being for allignment. why? when i machine parts at work that and the size is closer to the high or low limit of the tolerance we dont put a mark on the part. it just doesnt make sense. why would they mark what motors were better than others and then sell them. i would be...

    inside of a waterbox

    i dont have a pic but i removed mine last season cuz it kept coming loose and then it broke in half. the baffle is a flat plate with like 4 or 5 half inch holes and two pieces of 1-1/4 pipe going through it. it was kinda stupid.
