And now the tappet/follower itself.

Finished product that I won't be using. I messed up the threads and it won't tighten down flat. But it was fun practice.


(edit) I scrapped this design all together

The aluminum block was just to represent the engine block it will not be part of the engine.

That's about the shortest timing belt I've ever seen! It's not clear to me where the cam follower guides fit into the crankcase? Nor can I figure out how the push rods will connect to the valves? It looks like you have the head on the engine rotated 90 degrees from where it should be?

Your crystal clear photos of the rocker arms and cam lifter assembly will help me in doing a 1st. OHV engine.

Thanks Mike, It feels like I have been waiting for ever. I started over three years ago. I have this problem, I start one project and then set it to side for another. More offten the first project never gets done but this one WILL..

This is my first machining project. I learned alot from this forum and know that a picture is worth a thousand words. Glad I can help.

Here is a link to aprox. 180 and counting pics of this engine. Too many to post here.
