Hi guys!

My new challenge.
An HISPANO SUIZA engine for a SE 5a Museum Series of Hazegawa...

The real engine:

The way of Hasegawa, only one of cylinder head_before surgery_no crankcase, no oil sump, no carburetor, no plumbing... Just that you can see on the ended model, no more!

http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/759517DSC0007.jpg (http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=759517DSC0007.jpg)

Of course I can understand. Take a look to the crankcase only:

Well, I had to find a solution...
Let's go, my way:

Incredible work, of a very cool engine! I've never seen anything like this engine before. As usual, Dan, your craftsmanship is most excellent. Thanks for the inspiration!

By the way, I also love that little tool you're using for an engine stand!
