I started to mod the No2 Silver Swallow today and thought I would start with a 32 mm long conrod first , the stock rod is 21 mm long
Im going to build the rest of the engine around this rod , it should be done on Monday

You know when I just quickly read this post I immediately thought you were going to modify a Rivers Silver Streak,
a classic 2.5cc British diesel somewhat inferior to the Oliver Tiger.
I was on the verge of tears!
Rather than rebuilding a Silver Swallow around a 32 mm conrod, why don't you place it on the back of a decent metalworking vyce
and break it into small pieces using a one pound ball pein hammer.
You could then use your impressive technical skills to make a scratch built home made diesel.
I have collected a number of construction articles for such but lack your talent.
I can forward same on request.
