    Well it's alive. I've had it running. I had to make a new alternator bracket, not to hard. Now there's this little problem with the air filter. 14 inch drop base won't fit dominator carb and 16 inch won't fit the cowl hood. So I'm back too making something fit.

    Final update

     



    So I've found the answer to my last worry. The air filter, the gap between the hood and the carb is about 2 inches from the top of the carb. This will have to do for now, once I've put some miles on the motor I'll be off to the track. And I'll just have to take the air filter off.

    Looks good, Manky! It'll be interesting to see what she'll turn with the big boy BBC!

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
