Plan on building a band mill and BIL has an old B&S 18hp I/C engine for $200. Anyone here running the old L-head twin engines, if so how would it compare to the new chinese 16hp engines for $300. For band blade tracking, how often do you adjust it? Can it be set by shimming the pillow block bearings on the drive end? On blade tension, would an old car air shock work to set the tension?
