The problem with those "kits" are they are little more than some cast lumps of aluminum and some bar stock. It still takes as much work kit or no kit. http://www.modelenginenews.org/ is one website everyone should bookmark even if you never machine anything.

Yes it's true, but you can also buy the engine almost ready ( 90%) for 1700 &euro; from him, there is no problem. I know him, it's a good guy.

It's a wonderful little engine to look at no matter what.
