well its been a while haven't made much progess honestly. ive started to pull the head off the motor that was it it apart, just because i want to see how it works. i have some pics but firefox and photobucket aret co operating at the moment so ill try later.

also i worked the capacity of my engine in cubic inches

1.6 liter = 97.6 cubic inch

im aiming for 1 HP per cubic inch, engine from factory made 50 HP should be interesting.

pics to come soon.
