A couple photos of my engine installation.
I started my engine today for the first time. Ran for a minute or two at
idle up to about 1000 rpm.
Was running rough, not too bad considering I forgot to remove the
plastic bag over the intake air filter.
The prop is not on yet since it is inside.

Congratulations! very clean looking installation... where can one get such a
tall looking oil filter? Yvon.

Hi Yvon,

The oil filter is the one listed for the engine at Canadian Tire. It
looks tall because it is above everything else.  I actually made an
adapter and installed it at a lower place because I thought it would not
fit under the regular Glass Goose cowling.  The Glass Goose is a kit and
the cowling comes premolded.  When I installed the cowling I realized
that the oil filter would fit in its original place. So I replaced it,
saves the additional plumbing.  I did a lot of work on the water pump
though to fit the cowling.
