Thanks Don, the A6M engine is 14 cylinders, this one 18 but I don't really notice the difference once I get an "assembly line" going for parts. This is where the model is presently on the engine, have only put in the forward push rod tubes, and some little things to add including valve head covers, but close for now and moving on to the itty bits of the cockpit yesterday and today. Here's the engine where it is and some pics last week as putting the parts on. For wire I used small paper clips, used pins in the past but look too thin for me on this one.
I'm not sure of the numbers I'm going to use, as my printer quit and I'm holding on the paint job until I get a replacement...can't complain about my printer it held up a long time.
