Ronald thank you and I am glad it was beneficial to you because I learned also. What I mean by that is that I tried things I had never done before.

Doesn't get any better than that, Don.  Not only is the finished engine a jewell, but a lot of skill involved in many of the processes.  Not to mention, an unbelievable amount of patience!

Very late to the party, I know, but I haven't seen this before.

Superb work, and that flywheel is a masterpiece!
