I havent been able to finally resolve the engine height on the engine bearers problem.It looks to my eye that my engine maybe sitting a couple of mm high.I checked my references but I cannot find anything obvious.I know that there are two different types of cylinders used on the OX5.What I dont know, are they the same height and does the exhaust exit at the same level on each cylinder? For now I will have to live with it.The engine is now finished, except for the installation of the rocker arms, which I will leave until the final installation of the engine, as they are quite fragile and could easily be broken off.The short straight exhaust stacks were made up from 1/16th brass tube and sprayed a matte black.The engine is quite heavy and because of this,for ease of handling ,I will leave its final installation until after I have
completed the undercarriage and the struts at the center section.
Now its on to the gear. to be cont.......
