Oh yeah, still running the mousetrap, still 6-volt, etc. The only thing that is really changed is the primary has been converted to belt drive.

How is the belt drive working for you? Everyone has issues with the oil my 1960 pan leaves behind. My white wall tire would look much better if I had belt. What set up are you running, is primary still closed? I need to convert.. Thanks Bluzmn59
