Poor man's 787B

Getting closer.

All the coolant piping is done. Fuel lines and pump are in. Just a little bit more work and I'll know if my cheap chinese lathe and my 0 experience machining abilities rendered a usable adaptor. :lol:

Nice progress

As of now I'm just rebuilding the peripheral port. We'll know in the next week or so if my amateur machining on a Chinese lathe actually worked. LOL

I don't know if this thing is gonna work or shake itself to death. Its been a fun journey regardless.

I've been thinking of a W8 as a backup engine in case the rotary abomination doesn't pan out.

My adaptor plate worked.
