Title: engine tester
Post by: Klaus on 29.01. 2016 16:10

Build up a another engine with Triumph pistons I ve buid at ebay somemoth ago, so we had +8.
For a test run I collect some old part to build a tester where I can run the engine.
I dont know the compression ratio with this pistons and a squishinghead but it seems to be more than 10.1
Sounds and run fine.

cheers Klaus

hey scotty,

beam me up for some snow, and I will do my best ;)
Weather is like spring with 15 degrees, so I will fit a fan to cool down.

cheers

Mmmm...Its not original, the tanks are the wrong colour - stick a couple of wheels on the back, give it a blast, I reckon she will do a ton though......

Add a wheel. List it on Ebay. Call it a Morgan.

So, in case you don't care for the music played by your neighbor's garage band, just back it up to the property line and let 'er rip.

A little confused by the need for a clutch cable. Maybe it helps find neutral, but why would you ever be out of neutral?
