Ken,

I very much want to build this engine.
While I appreciate the effort you expended converting to metric, I am trying to find the inch drawing.
I have had no luck locating it on the download page.

I need to be able to open it with AutoCad LT.
Could you help me please?
I will gladly send you photos of the completed engine.

Thanks,
Mike

I dont if this helps but Solidworks have a free program called EDrawings Download eDrawings that allows you to view both DWG and DXF drawings. The software also allows you to measure and you can do so in imperial or metric.

Mike, I sent you an e-mail with Gerry's original plans - plus a follow up for the missing bits.

And a pdf of J.A.M DeWaal's metric version.

Also a different imperial version by johnmcc69 is posted here

John did a wonderful 3D version of my CIRCE engine a while back - great stuff.

See the link he'll probably send you the imperial ACAD drawings if you ask him nicely.

Regards, Ken
