The first part of the engine I made was the Crankcase, as this is the largest piece of the engine I wanted to be sure it would fit in my lathe. I have a 3 3/8 centre height lathe which is about 50 years old.

The crank case was followed by the Crankshaft. I wanted the make the most difficult components first.

The end plates were the next parts to be manufactured

Following the Endplates I made the 4 cylinders.

Next to be made was the cambox

I made the cylinder heads in one piece, I thought this would be a bit easier for me than making two halves and soldering them together.

You can see a complete record of all the parts made to date and how I made them by following the following link to the webshots site.
