I now working on engine B. Last night I got it about halfway put togrther. There are (65) 2-56 screws and (9) 4-40 screws. Here is A picture of most of the parts of the engine prior to starting the build up.

I also made 2 videos of engine A running I hope you like. P/S you can see my first Radial 5 in the back
The First is it running at speed. At least the speed I like :big:
