I will keep my mouth shut on the whole "running right" part for now! If it isn't one thing its another. But about the "look", I wanted the all business deal too. I've had the motors that required taking crap apart to repolish and puss out if you know what I mean. So over that. I tried to keep it simple, no polish stuff, stock but detailed hardware and of course, the semi gloss green. I did not want the motor to stick out and say look at me, but I did want it to be noticed.  |

What strikes me is that all these engines have alternators... never been a fan of the look of those... As far as my engine goes, it's all satin black, nothing fancy but i think it looks clean  |

I see that some 36hp fan shrouds in this thread have the coil bracket attached. How are you guys doing this. Threaded inserts?

VERY impressive stuff that you guys came up with. I love sublte but factory mods like that. Uber COOL. Also how you flattened out the single carb air filter indentation on the shroud. |
