What a beauty!!   :ThumbsUp:   :ThumbsUp:

Hard to tell from the video, is it firing evenly on all 3 pistons? Looks like the bottom right is doing more the the left when running slow, but that could just be the camera.

Never noticed, but I'm sure it is running evenly the way it's ported.

Thanks for all the replies from everyone !!!!

Thanks , Zee & Jim.

Always tag my builds with credit to the original designer. The right thing to do in my mind.
