Thanks Ian, i found that literally 5 mins ago!! Will get some pics up soon of this engine. Took a bit of a gamble on our favourite auction site, but think its been well worth it..

Wow! I didn't know that resource was available. I usually make an educated geuss where it should be then plug it into the compressor and alter the positioning of the eccenteric until it works well
