Posted by Fred on 3/29/2007, 2:05 pm, in reply to "Re: Engine Timing Order" One more question, with the two engines mounted tandem or inline, did you experance crankshaft failures to the timing end (front end)of the rear engine? Which was caused by the coupling weight or engine torque or some other issue? Also what type of coupling did you use (chain around sprockets)? Thanks for the information. Regards --Previous Message--
