Engine now in final assembly. If it works, I might set up a special web site to view it and answer questions.

A special website is a good idea, the site tracking information will be through the roof, and interesting to analyze. Thank you!

Not about tracking but, if it works, it should give people more and better information than can generally be given on the larger websites with their various constraints and restraints.

I could have done a better and simpler job by just saying, "a ****load of people are going to be interested in what you've created" and a website is such a cool way to share it with everyone...

Unfortunately, there has been a delay in assembly caused by a supplier who, equally unfortunately, is the best at what they do, and now I am hoping for a completed engine ready for dyno by the end of the second week of April.

Though I feel a bit like Joan d'Arc on the stake of Rouen, I am now being told that, barring any more issues, the prototype engine will be assembled and ready for dyno by the end of April.

Is your team using incylinder pressure sensors to help set ignition timing?
