I am not really a fan of posting non LBC topics to this list but this was just too cool to not pass on. A guy in the UK has built a very large scale B-52 RC plane that actually has 8 jet engines on

The pressure plate is never rebuilt. You have to buy a new one if it is defective. Check what Randall says. I think he has stated that he has re-used the pressure plate with a new clutch disk and th

Hi Ed, I don't think you want to torque the liners in. Make sure you have a real clean joint area on both the bottom of the block and the bottom of the liner. Apply gasket cement to the block, the me
