Stopping for the night. Heads and cylinders are next. One of those projects that is hard to stop once you get going

Cool - looks like it could be a fun little teaching aid for engineering students.

I've learned a bit about radial engines for sure.
I got the kit from MicroMark. I've seen it and a couple others in their flyer for the past couple months and finally pulled the trigger.

Once cylinder head done, 4 to go. Note the rocker arms over the functioning valves
