Its up and running and after just a few short drives i can tell that its going to be a lovely little motor. Its so smooth and seems to have plenty of torque. It also starts instantly when hot and doesn`t leak which is a first for me.

Have you thought about having your intake manifold ends recast ..for the 36hp market???

As awesome as that idea sounds- if you saw the amount of custom work he's done to make those fit the already expensive Okrasa heads you'd see that the market would be *small*.
I'm sure a couple people would make them work, but the skill involved to create that setup is waaaay beyond the average person.

I really don`t think there is a market for getting these manifolds cast tbh. Its not only that but the tinware modification required might put people off plus some still think that this is not a good way to gain more power choosing the simpler route of twin carbs.

Few little modifications, stock wheels with Firestone crossplys and made another bigger belt tensioner.

It's looking nice with the stock wheel setup ...
Have you thought about maybe installing a 40hp judson pulley single belt setup ..the 40hp single pulley would allow less strain on the crank than the dual 36belt system...judson realized that problem and went with a single belt ....

Never thought about changing the pulleys etc tbh. I`ve always liked the twin belt set up, i tend to run the belts fairly loose.
Cheers

Just an aside: Going to a single pulley on the 40hp Judson was not bearing related, but decklid clearance related. The 40hp Judson sat an inch further forward on the intake manifold.
