Queston about kits

[fabricator]

Fabricator---

The kit engines are just great.   Remember to be very creative about looking for problems because the Indians aren't and seem to make some mistakes just because it's the dumb thing to do.

A kit is all the nearly perfect parts you need to build a nearly perfect engine of a perfectly beautiful design.

this is starting to look like a no brainer to me, my only worry is that as anal as I tend to be with this kind of thing it will probably take me five years to be satisfied enough to put the thing together.

Ahhh those 32nd of an inch spanners, anybody I ask about Whitworth just looks at me stupidly. Not sure if it's the question or just thier natural thinking face.

Considering that my engine came complete with a cigarette lighter, childs toy cell phone, playing cards and a childs umbrella, I just set the wrenches aside figuring they were probably worth about as much as the toys. The tool box was sort of cool, I kept that.

Oh yes I am very serious. I saw that stuff packed in the tool box and I thought to myself, "what have I gotten myself into". I have always been a firm beleiver in giving the customer a little something extra, But that was funny.

Even if all the parts are perfect, you will still learn a lot about your engine by putting it together yourself.And thats got to be worth it in its self. And if you dont want the spanners ill have them.

[fabricator]

Oh yeah. I'm sure about that, seems like everything I get involved in I end up learning WAY more than I really wanted to know, take biodiesel for instance...................................

considering lister/oids top fed big end brgs (rod brg)
you are well advised to take any of these engines down and remove the piston to have a look up
inside it for any pockets of casting sand.

that stuff will find its way down into those dreadful upper feed holes and into the brg
causing you a very bad day down the road.. (crank pin journal scoring)

doesn't always happen, but if you don't look ,,, well you know murphy?

one place where ignorance is certainly not bliss.

I went the "Kit" route and have absolutely no regrets.  I very much liked the opportunity to examine everything before it's first run, and make sure every thing was clean, setup and aligned properly before possibly doing some serious damage.  The kit was an obvious choice for me.

Got any good fart jokes Bob?

"Got any good fart jokes Bob?"

(a golden moment)

several years ago while working for a manufacturing company as a mechanic
they hired this big old gal to manage the drivers, she thought her job was to manage me as well.

she was constantly standing right behind me, and i would frequently either trip over her or bump into her
everytime i turned around.

well one day i am up on my knees between the steering wheel and drivers seat of a boom truck, thinking i am
all by myself.
i felt that familiar pressure building and decided to let the big one rip...

well what do you know this gal was standing right on the fuel tank step trying to get up and see what i was up to
and her face was probably no more that 6 inches from my backside..

she just started to say "bob"
when i let it go,,

i turned around and asked her what,, as she was furiously fanning her face, and saying
in that rosanna anna danna voice

"NEVERMIND"!!!

perfect timing,,, i don't think i could have done it better if i had tried.

come to think of it, that was the last time she ever came up from behind me

Confucius say, Man who fart in church must sit in his own pew.



2 Blokes (Japanese and American) are playing golf. The Japanese guy is getting ready to tee off and suddenly starts talking to his thumb.

American bloke says: "What you doin?"

"Oh, don't worry, with Microtechnology I have a Microphone in my thumb. I was just recording a message."

The 2 men carry on golfing, but all of a sudden the American man makes a funny sound, that amazingly sounds like a fart. The Japanese man looks over at him. 'Oh,' says the American. "Don't worry, I'm just receiving a fax."



What would you call the definition of surprise?
Answer: A fart with a lump in it.



You know, one time I farted so badly that I had to spend 15 years in jail....for air pollution.

Little Johnny replies, "Teacher, do farts have lumps in them?"

The Teacher says, "Of course not Johnny,"

To which Johnny replies, "Then I have definitely shit my pants then..."
