    Ben,
    I’m so happy for you & the motor too. I own the exact motor for over 15 years. This one only weighs 67 pounds & runs so well never missing a beat. Your parts guy Dan Gano is super to work with. I too have bought from him a few times with great results. I like my Fastwin so much I have stored all the parts to rebuild it including oversize pistons, stock rods, oversize rings, all the gaskets, cooling parts, shift dog, & all the seals for the lower unit & gearcase too. So far it has just run so very well for me. I run it on regular gas from the airport & oil is OMC type mix @ one quart per 5 gallons, figures to about 20 to 1 ratio.
    I had another Fasttwin a very long time ago traded for a Mercury KF7. Wish I still had both but I have nice examples of both again.
    Good built motors!!! I prefer to deal with Dan too. I tried marine engine for Mark 30 parts & they said they had the parts, but 50% of the order was & is back ordered 6 or 7 months later.
