Good morning gentlemen from Spofforth village in North Yorkshire , England.

Two choices it would seem.
Send your G51 to Randy , or to Tom Dixon.

Years ago , I sent my G51 to Mr Dixon. It purported to be the ‘CL’ version. It ‘ran away’ at every opportunity.
It came back transformed . My best engine.

Set up with a 12x5 Graupner prop’ it purrs. Like a Tiger ?

Hi Randy,

Thanks for the work you did on my OS46VF, I'll keep an eye on those header screws. I will be sending you the ST G51 for the ABC conversion. This is a New In Box engine but it is in RC trim. I also just got a OS 40VF and wondering what you had available for that engine. It comes complete with header and pipe (aluminum) which I do not think will be appropriate for CL. so I am just glad to get the header with the engine. I have not yet taken delivery of the engine but just would like to get a heads up with what is available for that motor outside of front and rear bearings if necessary.

Hi Peter
I have  Custom  AAC  light  hard chrome  piston sleeve  sets  for the  VF 40, both bearings, cranks, and  lots of other  parts.   I also  have  some  parts  for the  VF 46
I make  pipes  for  all the VF engines  from Woven  Carbon fiber  sleeves

Regards
Randy
