a year later and not a single update... until now! Managed to get a wicked deal on a spool gun for the mig, so I can finally start in on that engine mount! Also, trashed my skidoo F3 (we had one hell of a run though) soo going to be gutting that and seeing where that takes me!

sounds like you have your work cut out for you too lol Got in some good rides with the F3 this year, runs like a top. Was keeping up with my buddies 2012 Snopro 800 on the straight sections and was kicking his ass in the tree's :P Got this project in the works, blaster still needs quite a bit...

not done yet, but it's not forgotten! Just started my new job where I have access to a lathe and mill so I can finish that driveshaft, as well as a TIG welder that can do stainless and aluminum. So engine mounts I might just change to aluminum for the sake of weight savings. Been busy with work...

Carbs are cleaned and synced! Going to be using steel for the engine mount since I can weld it up. Just gotta get some clutch measurements off the F3 so I can use the belt from it. Until then going to finish up some of the wiring details and keep cracking on my car project :P Some pics for the...

Engines about ready to go in! Cleaning the carbs next then time to get some engines bolted in!

Well, got most of my parts ordered. Instead of taking one piston off my order like I asked they took both off -.- so tuesday my triple will be rebuilt. The 617 for this project just needs the carbs cleaned and the engine mount fabbed then she's ready to drop in!

Parts are here friday! Then I can build up those motors and finally use that leak down tester :P

sat down and figured out an easier way to do the mounts! Tomorrow I will tackle some more of the wiring then it's just a waiting game for the parts.

Honed out all of the cylinders today, also got parts ordered for both engines. Need to prep the gasket surfaces and some other odds and ends so I can get the engines together when the parts come in. Going to try and figure out other ways to get that engine into the bay to simplify the engine...

ohh boy, winter is right around the corner here so I'm gonna start getting some more progress done on this thing and my other sled. Here's the work bench for now :P

I think if you... *stares at tripleB's avatar* What was I say again? Staying tuned to see how this turns out!

Transmission - AMSOIL - SAE 10W-40 Synthetic Motorcycle Oil (MCF) Engine - INTERCEPTOR Synthetic 2-Stroke Oil (AIT) My preferred brand, but gives you an idea as to what you need.

rather get Amsoil myself

if I had the bones i'd snap this up!

Yessir! Needed something heavy and that was there lol
