Ok Guys big red face time I dropped a bollock with the drawing

 :doh:  :Doh::doh: :Doh: :doh:  :Doh::doh: :Doh: :doh:

I've made the cylinder too long, it should be the 30 + 15 plus 1.5 = 46.5

I drew it as 30 + 30 it was only after I had drilled it that I started to think that looks too wide better check it out,  :doh: :Doh:

Just measured things up and all is not lost I can still fit the correct width of cylinder in, but I need to chase the change through the drawings as it will impact on the con rods, cylinder covers and the valve chest.

So it's back to the drawing board.

You'r top of the list Eric for the amended drawings  :thumbup:

 :Doh: That's bad news Stew.  Still, all part of the fun of a from-scratch-design  :D - I'm sure you'll have it sorted quickly!

Happy New Year Stew, am quietly following. I've seen these engines which look very interesting ... always thought they were too complicated to find out how they work but now I'll get to see all the detail! Keep up the good work  :bow: :thumbup:
