I have had Dale Detrich's 1/4-32's in my peewee for about 4 years now and still going strong.

Just sayin!

You convinced me!...

I'll order the plugs and a tap tomorrow!

I need to put my tilt table up on the mill. and set up on the plug holes

I have the exhaust outlets going to the other side of the engine from the print....didn't really mean to do that, but I don't think it will be a problem

I also need to make a cover plate for the top of the head...

Would that be called a hat?  ;)

www.cncengines.com

Jerry Howell used to make a great DIY kit but he is no longer with us; my buddy has used several of Roy's ignitions and they have worked out great.

Great work on your engine BTW.
