I acquired a 8hp flathead from my buddy and it seems to be in decent shape internally. Anyone make a decent rod or flywheel or cam?? I've looked but I'm not seeing anything on that nature just rebuild kits. If not I guess I'm gonna have to do it the old fashioned way and weld me some lobes on the cam, port, polish and shave the "eyebrows
 
I was going to build one onc.e...the mower racing guys have some parts. There's a rod and counterweight assembly for a vertical that would work in a horizontal. Mike Clements currently has one for sale (complete engine), I think. Not much in the way of cams, etc., but dyno et al. will custom grind if you want... I sold mine off as the UAS had "gone big" already and it would've just been a boat anchor down here. Fun, but slow.
