Looks great Tim  . I found a couple of flat head pictures for you

There is a word that keeps popping up here I love. "MAKE" My hat is off to you.
When we raced serious in the 90s my nephew who was the "shoe" asked me one day. "Unc Don why do you make stuff when we could buy it.?" I was stunned. We were leading the points at the time . My only answer was "Huh?". Nice to see you working away at this . It looks good . Wish you nothing but success.

Thanks guys:)

Sorry for the late reply, have been busy for a while.
Trying to sort some stuff out. Magneto issue is fixed for now, but need to modify my own.
Intake worked fine, but needs to me braced as the top plate flexed when we tightened down the blower.
I borrowed a magneto with 0. degrees of advance, and simply changed the neck from my mag. to fit the Flathead:)

Sidewinder:
Hello guys:)

Intake is now braced and mounted:) Looks even better:)
Magneto is back and we made a new clamp/support as the old clamp failed once;)
Has set-up the injection and started it, sound better:) We'll take it out for a spin tomorrow if the weather allowe us..
