JPWH 6,146 #102 Posted April 3, 2016 That motor looks real nice. I like your engine stand too. After taping and painting primer on my motor yesterday I think I am going to build me one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I can say I have built quite a few motors. 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,133 #109 Posted April 10, 2016 Shynon Is your 1045 crankshaft pto end 1" diameter or 1-1/8"? I'm thinking it is 1" and the model 1046 was the first to get the 1-1/8" shaft. Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Racinbob 11,299 #117 Posted April 11, 2016 I'm looking forward to seeing it in person and meeting you. That thing looked to be pretty much scrap metal as we strapped it down. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There was a complete charger 10 but that wasn't a project I wanted to take on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shynon 7,470 #125 Posted April 19, 2016 Got my wiring done and fired her up on sunday, only ran for a minute. Will do the 1 hour run on Thursday, then change out the fluids. Building my own HL 5 head light bracket, will get it painted this week. Used my other 1045 for a fitment model. I think they look good. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
