The primary must be a real ugly contraption.
My problem is with a two foot long rocker arm.
with all the twisting, how much is it really opening the left valve
as compared to the right one?
What do you figure redline is on that one, the rocker must weigh
eight pounds.
Maybe if he went over head cam, it might fly.
But I wouldn't waste my time with Harley cases, I would
go with horizontal split and plain bearing crankshaft.
I've worked up something similar on paper, but instead of using
a conventional setup on the left side, I was thinking of a perfect mirror
image engine, with it's own cam, pushrods, ignition, and running the two
sprocket shafts
into a common coupler in the middle with the chain running out of the
center.
Would require a completely made from scratch transmission like something
from an
inline four that has the primary chain coming off the center of the
crank.
Just me dreaming out loud again....
