Well guys
It's been sometime since i worked this plane but i finally had success as far as the engine goes. I rebuilt the carburetor even though it was already brand new. I didnt see anything during tear down so dont have a clue what ifixed. The engine is still hard to start so i have to use my magnatron starter to spin it to start it. However, it will start and runs well. I would like to see a little more rpm but i think that will come up as it breaks in. It's currently about 5900 but pulls like a tank. I may have it a little over propped but im going to try it for a while before i make changes. However, i built a new vannesa balancer to double check the balance. Good thing as im way more tail heavy than i thought. So looks like more lead is in my future on a plane that is already an anchor. I plan to work on it this evening so ill update everyone.
