So three T's together makes a total of 6 fuel lines! You will have to plumb them in to the carb vent ports. Make sure to clean the carbs after drilling the vents open. Carbs are gonna be like BRRrRRRrAAAAaP!
Ah, forgot the no start. Is there spark? Also check the compression. If the motor is on the fritz, it explains the weirdness in the video. Air leak maybe?
Can't tell to much from the video, but when you rev it toward the end when you're stopped, it has that lean hang idle going on. You blip he throttle and it stays up a bit long. Looks like FMF pipes? What other motor mods besides the pipes and filters?
The oil on the case could from the actuator seal being toast.
If you are as far as splitting the cases, it's best to plan ahead and do everything you can to help with reliability. IE, the second clip on the clutch side (pto) crank bearing. Another thing to not forget, put some ultra grey on the clutch side crank key. Maybe a little trans work if you can afford it. Check the trans bearings out. You can use a max load type crank bearing on the output shaft side of the trans. I also double clip that stuff to if it's got the grooves in the cases top and bottom.
Definitely adjustable Power jets. They will affect the top end jetting. Looks like a sloppy install though. I wouldn't even bother taking them out because there will just be a huge hole to fix. Not a big deal if you are good with metal, but it would take some talent to get them right.
Sure, sell it on Ebay. That way in two weeks there will be a nearly identical thread like this one. Then we can all tell him " some guy was on here asking about the same piece of junk, we all told him to chuck it in the scrap bin"
We talking homemade cookies or toll house break and bakes? Cuz I will rob da both of ya's for some toll house shit!
OP, glad Richard got you set up the way you wanted. I have an old peps rear I need done now that SoCal is done.
Beef, I just had an over ride trans from a buddy's build that I sent back for him to go through to make a pro mod. His prices were ok and he turned it around quick. Brad only gives you what you need to get the job done. He won't bother selling you bells and whistles you don't need.
There are sponsors who do polishing full time I you're in a hurry.
I have a full time job, however I'd be willing to do stuff on the side if there was enough interest. The price would be based on how bad a particular set of pipes really is and I'd like to make sure if I take work off Bhq that some of that gets back to BHQ for a sweet banner.
I have added engine dampers to all 4 corners, and made solid mounts for the under side. I may be able to get my hands on a Packard bearing support for cheap. I wonder I that engine stay from Loco/JDS will work on it. Between the studs on ice and Hoosiers on asphalt, this thing sees lots of load so no doubt it could be twisting.
