It is entirely possible to build up a new tooth with weld then grind it to shape, have done this and seen it done to good effect on farm machinery on several occasions. Regards Terry

Hi Chuck, To my way of thinking this last incarnation looks to be on the right track as the throttle should not adversely effect the fuel air ratio as it opens and closes, whereas the earlier design with the outboard throttle would greatly alter the mixture becoming very rich when it is closed...

Hi Chuck, Watching with interest, a sheet metal brake has (like so many other things) been on my to do list for a while. I have Dave Gingery's book, which gives good detail on how to build one, although it is somewhat lighter than yours. He goes on to outline simple sheet metal bends and joints...

Brian, fantastic journey, loved every bit of it, thank you for your hard work, I have downloaded the plans for future use (have to get started on some of these projects soon, looks like I have more than one retirement worth saved up:eek:) Cheers Terry

Love your work Patrick, glad to see I'm not the only one who measures twice, gets it wrong both times and ends up with multiple redoes. If at first you don't succeed keep messing it up till you fluke it:mad: Cheers Terry

Mitch check out these plans post by dnalot today http://www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/f13/shop-built-radius-cutter-20657/ should be able to make it fit your SB. Terry

Sensational work aone, thanks for posting the video;) Terry

G'day Dave, welcome along, this is a great forum, you'll have fun with this hobby. Terry

Well done Brian, if it was easy there would be no challenge and little satisfaction at the end but this one must be quite sweet now it's running;) Cheers Terry

Thought I heard a popping sound (was it the engine or your heart beating harder with excitment :rolleyes:) keep at it Brian we are all on your side. Terry

I'm getting excited Brian:D Just one question, do you have an earth wire from your engine frame to the coil mount/case? Can't see it in the pictures:o Have Fun Terry

Hi Brian, nice video, points look fine to me for this sort of thing (your not expecting to do 25000 miles a year with it) no reason why it wont work and is certainly an easy way to adjust the timing. Sorry to hear about your endmills :o sometimes I think that breaking endmills must be what I set...

Hi Brian, Fantastic build as usual from you, a pleasure to follow along. From past memory those ring specs. look right, 3.875 bore chevy was about .015" gap, thats close to .004" per 1" scratch.gif Cheers Terry

G'day mate, Looks good but how will it scavenge the crankcase to provide fuel mixture for the cylinders :confused: Cheers Terry

Hi Bob, Relatively new here, just came across this post and was blown away as this type of attachment has been on my to do list for a while, so would be interested in a set of plans if still available. Regards Terry

Hi Bob, Just a little clarification if you don't mind, after ginding the valves with toothpaste do you rinse it off with Listerine or is that only indicated for use on Lister engines??? :big: Keep at it mate Regards Terry

Don't tell me that Murphy has let the chinaman move in under the mill table as well >:( It would be nice if you could catch a break sometime soon. Chin up mate we're all cheerin for you Thm: Terry
