Great work! To echo Paul's comment above, in 'The Old Days' torque figures were rarely given. You have apparently done your homework so that's good.

after a long time I added another piece of the puzzle. This year I have to move faster with the renovation of the 4F6 / 1932 motorcycle

when renovating, we often overlook an important detail. :x One bracket is missing from our engine, so we'll have to do some welding.when I found out, I put off working on this machine for a few months. I had to sleep well for it. ;)

finally after a long time I managed to work a little on my 4F6 / 1932 and we installed the engine in the frame.

there is still a lot of work to be done, but every small step moves me forward.

Looking very good, as you said each step in work brings it forward. I picked up 2 1932 4f/600 engines and a frame earlier this year but I am nowhere near starting on this and still labouring away at my VA and SB projects.

We traditionally spend the New Year in the workshop. Today, the pipeline for oil and gasoline was completed. However, I am missing the double Dutchman's eye for the distribution to the pressure gauge and the camshaft. Can anyone find this part for a pattern at home?

I will look in the parts box I got with my engines to see what is there.

I found one engine with an oil line such as you have but in very poor condition and one line crimped/sealed and missing the fittings. I will shrink down a picture and send on later today.
Perhaps Draganfly have the banjo fitting and another can be made up.
