Digging trough boxes the other day I realized I have way more HS40's stashed away than I thought I did! Like 4 late model blocks that I have picked up becuase they were low useage or new. Going through the crankshaft boxes I found a late model small frame H/HS40 ball bearing shaft that specs out really well too. I have a few alternator systems for the solid state small frames.....soooooooo, I'm thinkin' a nice HS40 electronic ignition, 12v 3amp lighting system, Ball bearing shaft. Probably best suited as a slanted application (unless someone needs a standard mount HS40?)
think I have most everything I need onhand, at least to start. Nothing special, New stock rings in this honed bore come in @ .017 so I will use .010 over rings to bring the gaps down to the low side of the specified gaps, 3 angle valve seat cut, and just a deburring/smoothing of the ports, actual Tecumseh parts including a correct oem carb, etc.. Unless I get a special request I do plan to make it angled application and most likely Black in color, so it can be decaled a few different ways and be a good replacement for a lot of the spoke wheel mini cycles with lights. Gonna start cleaning a prepping journal and mating surfaces this evening, its too dam hot and humid out in the shop right now!
