and these ohv engines are a blast! they can be found in repair shops boneyards, picked up cheap or even for free
just a tid bit of a story from this year, cv16 flipped to horz for pulling, did a 3 angle valve job, micro polish crank & cam. Installed a carter #26, that is it & began pulling at 3800rpm beating a flatty with a vogel rod & piston, reground cam, worked valves & then ate a few 20hp twin cyl tractors in the twin class........repeatedly
these engines will revive alot of interest just like the v-twins did a few yrs ago, great lil engines!
