The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

All back together, heat cycles in the morning.  First build set me back about $1000.  This one, $600ish.  But, many happy new parts in the engine.

Looks good. What oil will you run for the heat cycles?

First heat cycle down, started second kick.  Larry's comp mod will be in my future I believe.  For pre-mix I run my Amsoil dominator.  On old cast sleeved cast rings you would not want to run synthetic, but on a plated cylinder with moly rings, it really does not matter what u run.  Some don't out of old habit, but I have not seen any difference between one or the other on newer engines.  Can't wait to see how she runs when I let her stretch her legs out.

I had to use 927 to break in my engine... Couldn't find any good non synthetic oils locally and didn't want to use lawn mower oil  :-(
