How did you keep the cylinder liners from spinning during the machining?

Vince

The liners are pressed in. I also put a dab of green loc-tite on them.

Steve,

By the time I get this far into a project I have to get the guys in to empty the trash out of the skip.  ;D

It really does require a tremendous amount of skill to put in that amount of machining without a major snafu - keep up the good work and pictures please.

Tweakie.
PEACE

Tweakie,
"empty the trash out of the skip"

Thanks guys!

I haven't had much time lately because work has gotten out of control a little. When I get something done, I'll get you updated.

Who say's I haven't had any major snafu's. If I didn't, there would be 3.

Please forgive a silly question, but I have to ask. Is this thing going to actually run???
Mind boggling.

Cheers

Yes that is the plan. I started building air and steam powered stuff about 4 years ago and it has lead me into gas powered stuff. I finished my first gas engine and have been hooked.

First effort was a V4
