possible, to get the inlet timings the half circle cutout is were there is a thinner step on piston inside and thats were it started to split.

congrats - nice work at the engine!

Beware of the machined flywheel it is tent to crack at the three bridges.
A reason why I changed to a variotronic and get off the fan and the extra ring that is press on, as well as weld the rivets.
The weight will be 979g.

Hi Lambretta Lutz,
this is an engine from my cutdown 1/4 mile sprinter , its still an on going project, currently having a pipe made to suit the engine instead of the modified franspeed race i was using , the power ended up somewhere around 36 and 38 bhp not 42 , ive been working on a few improvements during this year including different igition and hoping to get back out sprinting next year again.
