This engine has an old farmers conversion on it, which was done very well as far as conversions go. It has a model t carburetor on it, that probably works as good or better than the original carb. The compression is just perfect, this engine is very unworn. The buzz coil timer that is on it is one of the nicest homemade timers i’ve ever seen, i can say it will never give you any trouble. The head and rocker have old well done repairs on them. This engine starts easy and ran for over an hour today and hardly even missed a hit, which is hard to find and/or accomplish with any throttle governed engine. You can tweak this engine to run slow, or at a nice working speed just by moving the speed adjuster on the governor. Take a look at the pictures and video and decide for yourself. If your just looking for a smooth running engine you can sit in a lawn chair and fall asleep to, or one to take to the shows and draw attention, this one fits the bill. I can deliver this engine for $40 to portland, in show in august, or coolspring, pa in june this year. You can also pick it up here, 100 miles north of detroit. Feel free to ask questions.
