Thanks everyone.
There is no decompression on the motor.
I always use shell premium in all my small engines.
I have some 100ll
I have a lot of friends that race dirt track, so may see about picking up a drum of fuel. Just not sure what blend.

I had the block oversized 0.030” No other mods to the block. I have played with some heads. A stock head on a standard bore block, y...

Thanks for the comments. It is still in the early stages of development. I have to work on a way to bleed the engine trim lines. Also add a speed control in the engine trim, since it is quite fast. I may have to put heavier springs in the solenoids too.

Don’t grind it out.
Drill a small hole in each end of the void and inject it with resin. Don’t worry about anything less than 1/2” long.

I make plastic cones for thickened epoxy to put a bead into the corners, then lay the fabric over and smooth it out.
