Hi there, an echo for your welcome to the states, hope you enjoy your visit. I always like a plumbing build, I walked through many hardware stores as a boy, looking at all the potential engine parts they carried in the plumbing department. I'm looking forward to seeing it together and running. I like to use cast iron end caps for piston castings, they fulfill the desire not to waste extra iron from billet, and yet seem to be good enough iron to make a good piston for an iron cylinder. I've got one going in the build of a poppin', sort of, which will be posted soon. I hope you get your business done and get back to the build soon, looking to see it running. very fine start
