Good for you Mark

Take your time and it's a piece of cake.

Who knows come winter you may want to tear it apart again to play with all those dodads inside the engine. That's what I do when I'm bored.

PS I don't think of it as a book, sounds more like a novel

Wow page 32 8O

Maybe we can start a pool, to see which page the project gets finished on

Well, good I guess. We didn't get to work on the head :? I was going to start on it but had a question right off about the welding and Joe didn't have time right then so I moved onto my smoothbores. Well when he was ready then I was up to my elbows in carb parts so just continued working on them.

They need done too so it is all progress. I took them home and am finishing them there though. Those suckers weight 1/2 of what my stock carbs do :?

Tonight I am going back out to work on the head.

One job at a time buddy and you will soon have er done

I need advice from you guys "in the know" again. If you have followed this thread and know what mods I am doing. What ignition should I put in here? It has a really old Dyna in it right now and with the new coils I would like to put a newer more modern, maybe better Dyna ignition in it. What do you recommend and why? Part numbers?


Thanks guys. Your information has proved invaluable in the past and you all have helped shape the direction this bike is going in one way or another.
