Default My "BBC"

Nope, it's not a "rat motor", but a "Big Brass Condenser". Attached is a picture of a BBC I have made. I haven't provided a close up shot, because this is the first prototype for proof of concept, and is not quite cosmetically correct. I have run it now for a couple of hours on the '51 Merc on my engine stand. Seems to work just fine.

Tom,

I plan on making a couple for myself to see how they work. If they turn out well, I'm going to make a few more and see if I can partially recoup some of my costs. Because of minimum order quantities, etc. I have enough material to make a couple of dozen.
