I found cheap 1/4-20 nuts that use a 10mm hex , that helped make it work. Should be quite an improvement over factory carburetor.

Also I posted a thread a long time ago about an Amazon knockoff arc rod. I did build that motor, and the rod is holding up well

Come on now , I did a much better job than freelancer or whomever that character was haha.

I added weld to advance the intake lobe and spread the lsa. The lift gain was ground out of the base circle. I left the exhaust alone so the compression release works. Since it will be running over 10 to 1 I added more overlap.

I put it in a test motor and spun with break in lube, on a spare lifter, with spring load at 2k for half an hour.
I think it's gonna rip.

My brother would not be happy if I stole the engine off his ditch mower.

So now accepting donations of lawn boy duraforce mowers, ideally a pair, and lawn chairs!
