Hi,

Well, look at the bright side. In this engine two big issues are "solved".
The clutch won't drag, and no worm kick starter shaft issue's.

Looks to me like it was modified to race in a Micro Midget.
Push start and Go For It.
These engines were very popular for that class race car. ..........lm

Thumper, you may need to find a micro midget chasis to put it in. You'd have one hell of a custom Cb for sure! Seiously though, if you have a donor motor it seems that all can be changed back over to standard.

I think i am going to try to take the transmission back to stock and keep all the race transmission mods in a box for now makes it easy to start. after that i have no idea . Cafe style custom? leave it on a stand displayed as a tribute to old school racing? I do have a rotor from a cb72 domistic laying around with only the T and F marks on it has no LT or LF
