HI Albatros1234 thanks !! well this one i knew was going to be time encrusted and i was right i hate being right on my estimates

[Doug Baumann]

well it has been some thing, but not fun!! lol lol i made 2 sets of cylinders for this model and i didn't like ether here is the 3rd set the motors are just setting on the frame work.. i have a lot to make the cam boxs and valve springs and rocker arms all of the plumming and i need to blend the intake manafold in to the oil pan ! and let alone the greaserand fitting and the air pumps and it's piping
