  • @John-oe5nb

    A couple of things about the assembly. A drop of oil on the timing gear where it runs on the shaft would help. The connecting rod caps are aligned and only go on one way, same with the main bearing caps as there is a right and a left. You also lubed the wrong side of the rod bearings, but you did lube the crank, so it made up for that. There is an alignment on the flywheels. The counter weights should be across from each other and away from the piston which should be at top dead center. When you tighten the flywheel down on the governor side it changes the distance from the slide to the gear, you have to adjust for that. You did not show the valve clearance adjustment made at the push rod and the rocker arm. If you mount the fuel tank 180 degrees from where you mounted it, there is more clearance to fill the tank. You have the filler close to the valve train. Finally, there is a way to route the wiring through the frame to tidy it up. Minor things, but there is a right and wrong way to assemble engines.
