I made some metal brackets up to mount the crank case, it is going to need lots of trimming to make it all fit

Thanks Mudders :af, A bit more done yesterday afternoon before going to work, cut all the cylinders and fitted them to the crank case, also fiberglassed the crank case with .06oz cloth to strengthen it up
