Anton, how fast does your 1200 go on the highway? I have a 1600, and I usually cruise about 65 miles per hour. Do you use miles or kilometers in Russia?

Ha! You're critiquing his beer bottle and you still use the term "the fuzz?"

Hi Tim!
We use km/h.
Maximum speed 115 km/h (GPS), but usually I drive 85km/h not to make big RPM.

Wow, that's a gorgeous, very original looking engine there! If it was a USA delivered dual port engine it would also have a dash pot and throttle positioner/altitude corrector on it as well.

Nice job! Very Happy

Current rig while the kadrons are out to get worked over. I don't have the correct tin for the pre-heat hose, otherwise I'd run one. Temporary but works very well. I plan to source the correct tin to have this complete setup on reserve for a spare engine I'm putting together.

Thanks very much. It's not perfectly stock, but my aim is to have it as close as possible.
