I've been staring at these dumb cases for a few months now and recently touched them. It took some time to cut the hole out being as I don't have a mill, so a hand drill and die grinder had to do. Once it was cut out there was a large gap between the intake plate and one case half so I had to mix some JB Weld to let run into the gap. I hate the idea of JB Weld inside an engine, but the bulk of it is underneath the intake plate so I don't really see it letting free. Top plate looks ugly, but it will be sanded and refinished before it gets put together.
The Hodaka is getting there. Just a few loose ends to tie up. Top end and reeds added, pipe built, and most of the electrical has been finished up. I replaced all the spokes front and back, so the wheels need a little more truing up before I can mount tires on it. I don't have a photo since it's in a storage unit. ughhh
Also I moved out of town and lost my garage. My life is in a storage unit right now. UGHHHH
