Jeff,
I like your red engine, probably how mine would look best as too!
Matt,
Thanks for the good suggestions.
1. I will check with CC on the tag.
2. I was surprised that the wiring was in pretty good shape compared to several other Cubs that I have. Maybe it had been replaced once during its life. the plastic wire coating seems mostly in tack.
Do you build your wiring harness from scratch or do you by the new $100 ones?
3. Good suggestion on the oil I will check with NAPA and see what they have in the non synthetic.
I did get a little farther on the engine build tonight:
Took the data plate off the flywheel shroud and sanded/ primed and painted that area. that tag was a eye sore after I reviewed it more recently.
- installed the flywheel, screen.
- Points rod and points in place.
- Upper starter bracket and starter pulley installed.
- head gasket and head setting read for head bolts to dry.
Not sure on this color scheme with the flat black block and the red tins? May look real good for Halloween!
Also cleaned and painted a bunch of hardware. Its seems to be never ending!
Good news is I am looking through some of the parts I cleaned and painted a while ago.
Regards,
Chris
