Hi I am restoring a 1930's Faircut Senior bought at a boot fair . It had a few bits missing lead screw changewheel banjo tool slide and the bearings where shot , oh and the tailstock barrel is wobbly , fitted a 19 mm X 2.5 studding for a lead screw , new head stock bearings banjo , Myford change gears , and am now looking for an engine to build , got a cast iron15 KG lifters weight and cut it up , managed to get 4 pieces 3X 1 1\4 square for the cylinders so far ,
Thinking of making a twin marine engine ,any recommendations ?

Welcome chipenter. I don't have a specific recommendation for you but am sure that someone mayl. You might check out this site though http://hasbrouck.8m.com/ The late Mr. HasBrouck has numerous bar stock designs, several of which I believe are more marine type engines. A place to start at least.
