1917 Holt Engine startup and run

This 1917 Holt is 45 Horse Power. It's rated at 600 RPM, but it's only running 325 or so in the video. This engine was used to power a Holt Hillside combine. The opening picture is what I started with. It took me 1 1/2 years to get it running. It took parts of three separate engines to get one running engine. The water pump is a genuine Holt piece from one of the combines i dismantled for the engine parts.
Thanks for watching!!

    i don't think any parts are available. If you want something, you'll going to have to create a part yourself.
