Looks great, nice job!
Be careful with that FA though. I had an incident with my rear cylinder getting a nice drink this weekend with my tau ceti FA's. Installed the 38 stocker back on yesterday...lol

What type of paint did you use? Anything special to handle the heat?

 

[madscientist]

the heat range of our engines is not that high. i have been using standard rustoleum and auto primer w/o problems


yeah, so much for riding on saturday.

Glad to hear you are back up and running and that the parts found a good home.

couldnt agree more!! im glad my stuff went to a good cause and not on ebay.
sorry you had some problems, but glad to hear its rippen now.

 

[TB]

well i had it ripping for a little while but it's still not running to it's potential..need the carb is all outta wack so i'm just gonna put all new jets and everything in it..

the starting issue was the rear intake manifold stud..it was stripped out i got a replacement stud that is 10mm on the bottom half and 8mm on the top..chased new threads in the mani, shortened the stud so it fit flush and i dodnt have to bore out the carb hole any..walla ski starts..

the red paint is from the auto parts store..duplicolor high heat engine paint...part number de1804...i think..it's chrysler red

Hey Mark, seems it is looking good and well from my experience it seems you just never stop wrenching on your ski....had my first cranage (minor as it was) broken throttle cable.....then Mar broke his fuel line on the X2 then something was up with the sn....guess you get what I am saying....Anyways dude the ski looks good under the hood
