Those are nice wheels there Lab! Maybe I'll have you make me a set some time, those moped drums look sharp.
The pix below show engine two (rear engine) adjustment slots. Pic one and two show the range of movement the third shows a back plate that will be attached to the engine mount. Holes in the plate will allow bolts to be inserted into the bottom of the engine block to pull engine two toward the plate and away from engine one. This adjustment should allow for tension on the #40 roller chain that keeping the engines timed.

The engines are now mounted solidly so the timing chain can be kept tight. Bolts are to long so I will replace them with what fits but all can see how this is going to work.
