Very Happy It runs! Just shut down my stroked Okrasa 36HP engine equipped with the WW dual carb kit. Sounds great even with the stock muffler. You sure can hear the Porsche cam in it at an idle. Started it up on the bench and let it break in for an hour or so. No major problems, just a push rod tube seeping so I'll have to check that out. Other than that looks good, I'm stoked, YES

In the car finally and putting on the miles to get it broke in Very Happy It is starting to wake up. Have about 200 miles on it so far. Very happy as it gets more miles on it and loosens up. More pics in my gallery.

69mm.
I let the wife drive it yesterday. She was impressed that it got to 75mph so effortlessly Surprised . Have to watch the speed tho, I can't drive it like I used to with my foot to the floor all the time Wink already have two speeding tickets with my old 36HP. Also can't wait to drive it at sea level and denser air.

badges of honor! I'd blow the original tickets up to poster size and hang them from the garage wall! Laughing

Been working on the bugs in it, 900 miles so far. Very Happy Diving around here 4000 ft, it was OK all tho rich, ordered some new jets. I went for a drive up the hill and going up the switch backs it started missing real bad. Confused I made it back home. Pulled the plugs, fouled so I checked the float level and lowered it a tad. Seemed to help. New jets should be here this week. Then it is off on a 1000 mile trip to VWOTG in Denver, May 16. Then a 3000-4000 mile camping journey to CA to visit the wife's relatives at the end of May. Very Happy
