Plumbing T2 , 0.75 bore X 0.625 stroke 6/15/2008

Well.....Here it is..........It does not look like much at this
time......But to the builder's eyes (me) , it looks as if it is a
3/4"bore X 5/8" stroke , twin cylinder fan wheel cooled , complete with
two CD units providing the spark......BTW, the engine will have twin
carbs.......The pistons will move in parallel movements, which will give
the engine a uneven firing order.........Basic wants for the engine is a
idle of 850 to 1000RPM, and a top speed of near 7000 RPM.......The block
is a 3/4" X a cross . cast brass plumbing fitting.....Sounds good enough
that I should get busy building it.....There will be a "LOTS" of
borrowing engine parts from the Brass Model "T" engine......Basic crank,
bearing cups, cylinders, cams,and a slight modified heads.....Will keep
you informed as the build works out....Thanks......Dale

just a few pictures of the "T"-2 engine.....This one is the exploded view of the engine......The engine will be cleaned and polished, then the final assembly.....Then I will work on the box mount for the engine.....So far I have fit up the parts, and have been working all of the "tight" spots out of it....I will follow up with a few pictures with the engine assembled......Dale
