Need to take some pictures, but I got it all finished yesterday. It goes 20, it may have more in it, and it wheelies at 16 mph. Pretty sketchy, I need to change the ball joints out for hiem joints, right now it has so much play it's hard to keep it on the road at 20. I'm going to name this 212 the little engine that could lol, it just keeps chugging along like a train no matter what I throw at it.

I'm glad the build has changed but not been forgotten. I think when you mount up a rack and an ammo can you'll be really happy with this and will find it very useful. I'm excited to see either pics or maybe a new video of you driving it.

Well I got a couple yesterday.
Brief video of driving it.
Oh, and for all you guys who say that this vari drive slips and this engine has no power, I sheared the keystock on my rear input pulley at 20ish. So HA.

Nice off road shots. It's nice to see the JD in action.

Thanks!
Fixed the woodruff key. I'm loving this thing! 3rd gear is perfect, about 15 MPH with a low end of about 3 MPH because of the vari drive. Super happy with the way the pulley swap worked out!

I'm finding out that when you remove the rev stop screw so you can go wide open (which I did before I even installed the engine), the Hemis dyno at 9 hp. So all you people saying it's underpowered, stop it, it's more power than the stock engine, LOL.

Just be careful going wide open for too long. Hate to see you kill your engine.

Not directly on the forum. I'm not going to point fingers, but 3 forum members are constantly telling me "it's underpowered" "get a real engine", and stuff like that.

Yeah, I saw an article like that in my Google feed, but then a video of it popped up in my YouTube feed, pretty sweet. People don't give these engines enough credit.

Alright so small update on what's going on.
I'm going to be ordering a full gasket set for it later, along with the points stuff needed to make it run.
