Thank you very much,Mike. Coming from you, that's a rare ,singular honor. It sort of was like Easter-that monster coming to life after what? 45 years or so. I'm confident that the timing is pretty close. I'm working on dialing in the carb, but that seems pretty close too. My wife came running out to the garage and told me turn it off-everything in the house was shaking. Ear protection is definitely mandatory. I gotta find a place that sells nitro around here.
What we're talking about is a vintage Burkhardt stroker that I got running for the first time today.
12-1 pistons
4 5/8" S&S stroker flywheels
Sifton 205s
Dual plug heads w/ compression releases
Kibblewhite springs and alloy collars
R intake valves
61" HD barrels
Burkhardt trap door
Morris Front mounted X5 magneto
Ace Knee and ankle braces
I forget anything Mike?
Thanks again. I guess I'm not as old as I thought.
