Hi Sm,
I personally have no issues at all with (SBF&P) George, actually I'm more than happy to endorse him nowadays as his level of product is 100%. I've spoken to him quite a number of times and have struck up a friendship and understanding with him. There are parts that he has made up that are not commonly available and for that I have nothing but praise.
BTW George was the supplier of my Verti-Cutter reel if you look back at my build thread that I put up on here a few months ago.
As far as the engine is concerned the current Briggs sloper style engine is the best value for the amount you can buy an engine for these days.
I'm trying to think who that was in WA who had that paint formulation mixed up, I have a suspicion that it was a past member on here, but don't quote me on that one.
Cheers,
BB.
PS. International Orange / Chevy Orange are basically the same formula.
