Landon’s summer engine project #2 is complete minus a few add on accessories. This is an electric start Honda GX390 short block with a Predator 459cc hemi style head. The block for this build was the original block I used when we made the GX390 +.200 stroke billet cranks. I ran it in UAS for several races before building bigger CC big block engines to test the cranks. Again he had to roam my work shop and the entire building to find parts to get it done. He done 99% of the measuring and assembly with me over his shoulder to ensure he was on the right track. We will fire it up in a day or too to see if it runs as good as the 196cc he done a couple weeks ago.
