I believe that I forgot to thank Dan Gano at ganotech.com for supplying me with just about anything that I needed at reasonable prices. Great guy to do business with.

Excellent job on the engine! Very impressed with the paint job, gold and black........looks like a perfect Penguins vessel. Keep up the good work Nittany Lion.

Great article and well documented!!!!!! There are some suggestions I would like to make, your engine was made with .078 reed stops, I would have changed them to .110 stops. They were used on the 90 and 100 HP starflites, these stops would improve performance and I would also use a 24:1 oil mix (will most likely get some flack on this ). Oh and one more thing, lose the Steelers and replace with "Packers" (Flack for sure on this comment ).
