Nice setup!

Any new PIX or progress?  What RPM are you running/ what size pulleys did you have made?  Was the jaw coupling a stock item or did you have to modify it to fit your flywheel?

Why the ST12 head?

Thanks and keep Tinkering.

Probably bought a bunch at auction when that APU mfgr. went bankrupt and sold all assets.  (Same place Surplus Center got all those small Cats and Yanmars?)
#3
I made an offer of $200 for 2 and got them with free shipping.
#4
Purchased 2 for 2 engines from Surplus Center for some generator projects.  I hope I'm able to use them.
#5
Anyone actually using their engine yet?  I keep looking at mine and getting distracted by other projects. 

I need some inspiration- hopefully some else's project PIX!

...   My new pulley should be here today so we'll see how it does at a lower rpm.

What pulley set-up will you be using and where did you source?

What did you do in the way of engine management/ control?
#8
Thanks for the manual. 

What you doing for the control side and which gen head are you going to use?

Hi all-
1st post.  I think I purchased 2 of the last engines from Surplus Center that I will hopefully use for a concession trailer project.  With luck, I will receive them on 4/7.

I enjoy reading other putterer's posts.
