David,

As for the engine, I am going to mount a brand new OS .61 FX. I will leave provisions to swap out the Rossi when I get it sorted out.

Mitch,

sounds like you are way ahead of my thoughts. I just assumed you might be able to fit the tank in sideways once in the compartment - 2" is narrow!

The mounting lugs on vintage Rossi's and OS SF's are so close that you can use the same mount. I'm not sure if the FX changed that spacing from the SF but if not, you should be able to swap out the engine to hearts content. Otherwise, it would be simple enough I suppose to use another pair of glass mounts like those you're using (Sig?)

Looking forward to seeing the frame-up.

David.
