Default My little winter project.

I had to have my crankshaft trued and welded this winter so i decided to smooth out all the welds on the frame and start all over.Also upgraded the engine,and 4" rineharts.Pics show the welded crank and SE compensator.Just waiting on the stretch bags to be painted.I can say i turned every nut and bolt now.

I guess you didn't let the weather slow you down this winter. Looks like you made really good use of your down time. I can't even imagine how much you saved with that DIY project. My hats off to you.
