The other night I got this far with the Mag....mostly assembled, waiting for sheetmetal and intake/carb.

Tonight the KT got yanked out fo the tractor and I finished up the Mag assembly.  Painted everything up nice and pretty tonight so it will dry at least 24 hours before I start messing with it again Sat. AM.

I used a low gloss automotive engine paint (good to 500 deg., oil/gas/chemical resistant, etc.).  It laid down very nice, might be just a little flatter than the factory paint, but looks nice on the engine.

 

About a month ago I swapped out the AL rear end for a nice solid IH Cast Iron one!!!  [ATTACH=full]83757[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]83758[/ATTACH]
