Looking good Bob. Nice work

PS I have the wire diagram somewhere if you want to check your ignition wiring lol. And the firing order if you want to make sure the rockers are in the right order :evil: :evil: :evil:

Sensational work man! Did you fire that up yet to see how smoothly it runs? :woohoo:

Way to go Bob!

it'll be rough right now, only half wired yet.

One side done, now the easy side.

As I told Mike, I better be able to see this shit when it's buttoned up!

Fabulous, Bob!

Really slow going right now, really busy at work (always busy at work).

So I got the engine looking like I want.

Bad thing is, I forget what colors i'm using on the various metal parts.
Good thing is, the Vallejo earth and oil wash looks great on an engine!

I'm looking for seat belts for this, I really do not like the kit ones, don't seem to fit right, any suggestions.

Very nice work Bob.

 

[Duke Maddog]

Sensationally realistic work on that engine Bob! Did you start it up? I'm sure it runs as well as it looks!

 

[lupanzer]

Really good Bob!

Other than being on the road every other week the last couple of months, my biggest hangup on this build has been the seatbelts. Just didn't like the kit belts.

I fixed that...ordered some RB belts from Last Cavalry :coolio

So game on again! Might have it buttoned up this weekend.

 

[jknaus]

Most excellent.
James

 

[Iron Mike]

Get it on!

 

[Paulw]

Gee, after you get all of that rigging done you should be able to perform vascular surgery :gogo

Those streamline wires are for an S.E.5 that I've been wanting to build.

Kermit Weeks flies one of these from Polk City, Florida.

If yours sounds like his, (a little like a tractor) you know the firing order is right!
1-5-3-6-2-4
Stellar, Pup!
