Hi Larry,

Congratulations with your very fine engine! Well deserved.
I like your choice of wiring. Looks period correct with the cloth insulation. Where did you find those wires or are they home made? Do you want to share the secret with us? Looking at the battery and coil box you are also a good woodworker! I only miss the crank shield on your engine.

Kind regards, Johan.

Thank You very much naming my engine project of the month. This is an honer I didn't expect with so many wonderful projects being listed.
I recently got the cart kit for it from Don Weinbrenner. I now have it machined and installed.
My son might come tomorrow and help me post a video of the engine running.
Johan, I had the wire for a while. I think I got it from Starbolt.
