Default Knucklehead Build

This is gonna take some time but I will post the pictures as I get a chance to work on it. This is a little fuzzy but you can see it. I am sorting out the parts for the heads a seeing what is missing or needs to be replaced. The cases are at the machine shop getting the mounting tabs surfaced after getting welded up.

and here it is! Thank you. Knuckle head, a serious muscle look. The engine has such a classic vintage appearance.

My neighbour when I was a kid had this white wild Clydesdale cross. She was this incredible power pack of nasty attitude, tail and mane to the ground, half the size of all the other work horses. No one could get near her.... I used to call her Knuckle Head.


...... k I'm ready, let the fun begin

Cases are repaired, cylinders and pistons have arrived and I have sent the flywheels and rods to Falicon Crankshafts for assembly and balancing.

I am talking with Fyrite Choppers about a roller.

Crank is back. Waiting on case races and lapping tool to show up. Still looking for a roller. Flyrite can't help me.
