V-Twin runs - Picture & Video link

[woodzy]

Well, this weekend replaced electronics and tried to run the V-Twin again. Goofed around with it for about an hour and decided to scrub again until later in the week. Wanted to get the fan cooling completed since I didn't want to run it too long without good cooling.

Here is the completed engine

I started this project in Late October early November. My guess is I have less than 200 hours in it and really has been fun building it. Plans are from www.jerry-howell.com. There were about 215 parts needed to be made to make this engine. Most of it is aluminum, Cast Iron, and Stainless. Made everything except the fasteners, piston rings, and o-rings. Even wound the stainless wire for the valve springs.

Jeff what machines did you use.

Very nice!
What fuel does it use?

[woodzy]

speedy,

I have a pretty decent shop. Main equipment is a Bridgeport, MSC CNC knee mill, Clausing 5904 Lathe, GROB NS-24 Bandsaw, plus plenty of other tools and cutting tools.

Very nice!!

Hi Jeff, I watched your videos and I am green with envy. I recently completed the same engine, took me almost 300 hrs, and I have yet to hear it run. Did you have any problems starting your engine that you could share with me? What are you using for fuel? I have not tried methanol as it is very difficult to find around here.
You should be very proud of that engine!!!
