Keep up the good work, projects like that are not for the faint of heart.



----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS -----
The prototype cylinder was machined last week. On Saturday the cylinder was shown at the Indian Four Club meet. All the people that saw it had positive comments about the exact appearance and timely progress. The cylinder is now in the hands of engine builder Mark Hill for verification of machining processes and demensions. After Mark is done with the cylinder it will be cut in half at the parting line. This allows us to verify pattern and core are on center line. We can then measure casting wall thicknes. This is the best way to insure that we have a good part. Next we will make the nesesary adjustments to the our processes to make a perfect part. All of this work should happen this week.

I will keep you posted on our progress
