i have the promo page and bumper sticker scanned as a JPEG photo.
i am sure it will be on the CNYCC website very soon.

today i started up my latest new motor package (4 carbs). no fuss , no muss
, it started smooth and nice.
adjusted valves static cold , then tweaked them hot thru my homemade
valve covers with holes over the adjusting nuts. very little mess , even with a
few higher rpm hits. i feel this is the best way , especially when dealing
with used lifters / cams .i also like to watch flames from exhaust ports
for a final tweak. they should be even colors when you do a quick goose of
the throttle.
i am running 2 late primary , and 2 61 bowls with 65 140 secondary covers.
this gives me idle circuits that all work. no lockouts are involved. i am
still finishing a lot of small details. the motor sounds very peppy on the
table.
covers are easy to make , i set a head on one , then ran a punch thru each
rocker bolt hole. then a chassis punch to finish them off.
the latest motor with these "test covers" on it is on the web site.
flame suits are on. 25 lb extinguisher nearby (but i cant lift it!)
regards, tim colson
