Quite a project. Good explanation of the workings of a raidal engine.

I once overhauled a Siemans SH14 radial.  Only 7 cylinders, but I would swear it had a million or more little parts that I feared would not go back together without something left over.

Very cool Elwyn. I just got blasted yesterday from the prop of a 1936 Beach Staggerwing. Great sounding radial. Thanks for posting.
