Thanks for the responses and help guys, as I mentioned.. I have scoured the forum and the world wide web for info but nothing specifically states the 654cc.. I guess I will chock it up as a pretty early XS1? perhaps from S/N 002486! I have about a truck load of parts that came from an ol' flat tracker. some of the parts from that have included bored jugs stamped HARTLINE.. that I have found was a flat track racer back in the day Gene Hartline, a few cam's Shell Rods, a few cranks with the pins welded.. must have been an old race trick. it's been an adventure digging up info on this stuff! and a couple early motors without the starter. Again thanks for the responses.
