Re: I need more power

Hi MArv,

I just pulled the thing apart to get teh numbers for new bearings.

check the photos section - daves stuff - drill1 and drill2 and drill3
the Large L is what it would look like if I put on a pretty big
timing pulley.

since the unit is just loosly assembled for the picutres you should
get the idea, just please don't aske mt to tightent the belt !

It seems the large L gear will fit : ) but I might need a little
clearance for the parts !
