Panther Pup

[BMyers]

Does anyone have patterns or castings they want to sell for the Panther Pup 4 cylinder ? I know I can purchase them from vendors, but I thought I would toss out some feelers for other avenues first.

I hope you find castings one way or another so we can share experiences.

I have a Panther Pup under construction. I am currently building the Crankshaft and planning on how to support the crank in the case. The original plans do not provide for bearings.

I noticed that also. I am considering either bronze split bearings or casting babbitt into the crankcase

most people that i talk to are using sealed ball bearings on the outer ends only. there is plenty of material there for a light press fit. bill riecharts widow still sells the castings but the price recently went up due to high scrap cost at the foundry. good luck steve
