IT RUNS!!!

Getting the fuel strainer fixed (again) was the last thing to do to get the Kahlenberg ready to run. Here are pictures of the finished engine. Yeah, there are a few more things to do (such as machining main bearing drain plugs) but these are cosmetic and/or minor.

It’s been nearly seven years since I started this project. Time to see if it runs!

Here is a better, less chaotic video of the third run for the gang at BoatArt:
