Speed Queen II with 92 c.i. twin

(1/2) > >>

Jack Gifford:
The crank is on its way back to Moldex, to be repaired enough to use cylinders 1&4 as a twin. The hemi head is at the welding shop awaiting TIG closure of gaping holes in the water jacket. I wasted some time messing with the non-working thermostat, before realizing it really isn't needed- I can simply leave the electric pump off during warmup. I wanted to relocate the temperature gauge sensor, but it was mechanical and the tube was too short. So I bought a new electric temp gauge- much more flexibility of sensor location.

Stainless1:
OK Jack, I locked your old thread so it is ended, per your desire....
Have you figured out a firing order for your new engine  :laugh:  lol8  :cheers:

Rex Schimmer:
I got to thinking about Bob's comment about deciding your firing order and you could certainly make it a "twingle" but you would probably have to mount it in your lakester with "jello" motor mounts! It will probably be a real shaker no matter what firing order you decide on.

Turn slow and use a BIG flywheel.

Speed Limit 1000:
The firing order might be the same a Ross's Harley 1-2 aktion086

Stan Back:
