As you see just dropped another $150 into the build... hold up was alas just $'s.
Got a bit done this weekend. The intakes for the carbs are done! The carbs are on the bike! Still awaiting some spacers for the carbs; plastic parts taken from some transformers I will post next time. But here are the updates...
Attachments
And now what do they even like going on the bike; lets find out....... L@@KING GREAT! Each engine will be started and tuned separately, once tuned they will be chained together... Zoom zoom..

How about a chain tensioner. Getting tired of having the plastic ones that wear down and need to be replaced. Because I got tired of building with HT kits and have some blown engines laying around in the shop. Wizzkid came up with this next segment and idea for making a geared cog on a roller bearing. The cog is taken out of an HT engine. Placed on a lathe and cut down to size. A bit of metallurgy is done for strength and a roller bearing is pressed in.

Wizzkid came up with these two plastic blocks. He said they came out of some broken transformers at his work. These adaptor plates were drilled out to size. In one of the pictures I am attempting to show the vacuum hole that is drilled in at an angle... Everything is custom. Pictures show a brass fitting being cut to get from the gas tank to the engine fuel lines. Next are the carb adaptor with vacuum hole and then with the carb on the block showing the notch that was cut to allow the throttle lever space to rotate.

Here we go.... what we have all been awaiting..... Lines attached... side view and under you can see the brass fitting made on the lathe. Oil then gas is added...... but then!
Attachments
But then gas just poured out of the bottom bowl on the fuel on/off switch on the tank! This was then removed fit into a washer placed in the lathe and recut. Then the lip was tapped down and it is as new again..... works too.... No dripping!
Slowly this lathe is starting to pay for its self. Having the ability to repair a part like this on the fly is priceless. But the 70 year old Logan did come with a price. $900 on CL.
