  • holllly moly that's got a hell of a lot of compression! I hope the ants didn't ruin the magneto!

  • Nah, mag's 100% now!

    Starting a high compression engine with a crank handle will be fun :D

  • That is one monster of an engine! ,good luck with getting her running. Any idea what you might use it for?

  • I amy not be keeping this one here, I have a good friend who needs one for an indoor pumping unit, it may find a home there!.

    but I'll maintain and re-aquire it when he's done with it.

  • Is that ants in the magnetor coil ?? :o

    That is alot of compression for a gas engine!!

  • yeah loads of ants!.

    The bore and stroke is about the same as the Howard Jr, I wish it had the same compression!

see all

  • Looks like a JAP 5. I have one too. I also have the 55 which is the 2 cylinder version of this engine.

  • Nice project! A few years ago I saw a historical race (F1 and other categories) with race cars powered by huge 1.5 liter 1 cylinder(!!) JAP engines! Fantastic sound. These engines are very reliable and not too difficult to service. Keep the faith...your patience and efforts will be rewarded !!!

  • careful, wouldn't want you to lose an arm. you need 2 arms to cut open compressors and stuff :D

  • haha nice ;)
