Phil a little teaser , one of the Merlin heads from the complete engine I have, just need to make a few adjustments .

Finished the bins and all the side lights front and back wired in. Next the engine bay hatches rubber kickers and associated.

Thought I better install the motion pack to include a high pressure smoker before I start on the rear deck, low volume I might ad!

I've been busy printing the engine for the Cent, I really need to know where those exhausts need to go and the best way to do that is by attempting to slot a slice of the engine in there.
Does anyone know the make and model of the generator engine perchance? Has anyone found a 3d file on the net of that said engine?

This is going to be a squeeze.

A question for Stephen regarding the meteor engine, was it central in the hull or towards one side? The exhaust pipes seem to point towards a off centre installation.

Absolute dead centre, the Aux Gen makes it look asymmetric.

Roger Stephen ! You can see from my false floor how much room or not you have to fit that beautiful engine you have. We have one of the motion modules under the engine, you would have maybe another 40mm or so if this space is kept clear.

Working on the false floor and milling the Merlin down to become a Meteor. I'm going to need all the ancillary parts from basically the crankcase top section upwards, these I will have to make by hand. In some ways an engine and engine bay slice is more difficult as there's nothing to hold the parts that are just floating.
Other parts required, Morris flat four engine/gen set, air cleaner bins, fuel tanks, heat exchanger and plumbing, lots and lots of plumbing.
This will focus the mind for sometime.
