Getting a little carried away with the dummy engine. Push rod tubes and ignition harness, top and bottom. Exhaust pipes and intake tracts will be foam. Not true scale but close enough for a flying model |

Test fit on nose. Slightly enlarged Fiddler's Green J-3 cooling baffles are the right size and shape, but need to be make of light card stock. Exhaust stacks will be foam, pushrod tubes pins. |
