Thanks Cinqster for your kind words

How are you going to make the "collar" piece in brass? Cast or machined? I guess machined, as brass is an absolute pig of a material to cast - if you need some help to cast it give me a shout, and I'll probably put you off the idea!

I am going to solder it, I have a "mould" for the engine side and one for the gearbox side...brass tubing in the middle en than closing the piece with brass or plastic ??

I'm intrigued by Rallymasters posts about the initial cost. I must admit that $4500 would just about get you enough workshop equipment to reproduce this kit at a lower price (I think of all kit prices nowadays in terms of useful workshop equipment!). I'd be tempted to do such a thing just to give that Berry guy the kick up the ass he deserves, if he treats customers like this!

But you need a lot of skills: casting, milling, making photo etch, work with carbon fibre etc. I think that is the reason why it went wrong with Promocom: to many participants and to little coordination. But the engine would be a nice project.

Good luck with the build, but bare in mind if you make too good a job, you'll be promoting that idiots products!
