Posted: Fri Oct 14, 2005 9:37 pmThey sure look good now. I'm curious- what work exactly was done on them?
Posted: Fri Oct 14, 2005 9:42 pm...all they need is a carburettor, inlet manifold, magneto, five spark plugs, exhaust manifold....a propeller....
..and...
..Way-Hay...
We have a super, five-cylinder, radial engine to stick on the nose of our new home-built...
Sorted...!

Well they were in for an overhaul. After so many hours they rotate the motors and send them to us to freshen up. I magnaflux the shaft to make sure there are no cracks and then a light hone on the cylinder bore. Check the valving to make sure there is no scoring. Then new bearings, piston rings and a complete reseal. Then lots of grey paint to make them look pretty. Dyno test them and ship them back.
That's about it!
