| I might charge up a tank, throw it in the back, and mount the horns. Shucks, the guy who made the plans put his on his golf cart. I might start making videos soon. | |

- Well, several days ago, I worked on the tractor, removing the old engine and putting the twin on. I cleaned all the caked oily grease off the frame and engine. I will be doing the same to the old engine later. Both were a mess. Believe me, I've worked with caked grease and it's no fun. I had to clean a whole transmission covered with this stuff.
 As of now, it's sitting on the tractor. I bought a new oil and fuel filter for it and put new oil in it. Now I just need to drill the holes for it and fire it up for a test run.  Of course, this big engine produced a couple problems(as always  ). One, the fuel tank won't fit. Almost fits, but not quite. The mounting holes don't line up. Other than that, it's mostly a good fit. Stay tuned as I'll be doing a startup video.
 Sweet nice work, And can I ask what is the mounting dimension on the twin? | |

Cool, it's pretty big 17" all round , it's a monster compared to that single in your picture. | |

Notice the train horn on the seat. It's mostly done. Just have to make a permanent mount and a paint job.
