LOL....I'm 64 and 2 surgeons told me I need back surgery too. They told me I wouldn't recover in time for my son's November wedding so the wait is on. Still need to start my 1/6 Waco.

RE: WACO YMF

Worth its weight in gold, isn't it (nitro)? If I buy this 7-35 radial I won't need to worry too much about fuel cost. I wouldn't expect to fly the plane very often. I have a Spacewalker with a Saito...

RE: WACO YMF

Thanks James. I appreciate your comments. Did you use 100% methanol for break-in? I found a place to get some today.
