Brief Description:  Engine Assembly

Engine assemble weekend. Bray came up to help me put it all together. I think it was me helping him as he is th engine specialist. Very good having him there to assist. Following a combination of the Jabiru manual and Camit modification and assemble process. We got the crankcase together witht e pistons and cylinders attached. Had a bit of fun with the new solit followers. The follower guides held the followers about 20 thou too high so there wasn't clearance of the top of the cam lob. We just had to hand ream the end of the holder guide to let the follower fully bed into it. Otherwise it all went to gether pretty well installing the larger through bolts and Camit nuts into the case.
