Hi Franzkait, who is your helper?
The Ur2? with your helper, is this the engine that the thread is titled after and are you are restoring this, or have you built all of this? You have been pretty quiet recently, so I know you must be busy. 
I always enjoy your presentations. But I don't always have time to comment on them.

Ur2 Oil pump
Hi Franzkait:
This is an aluminum casting? The design of the Ur oil pump looks more like
the Gnome oil pump than LeRhone. Is this Ur2 oil pump completely different in design and function, or does it follow the Gnome design?
Thanks: looking great.

I like the way you had shown the progress from casting to machining.

Franzkait, is the rusty looking blank in the right frame a casting, or a forging?
If a forging, do you care to discuss what you had to do to make it?
