Finally an update. Engine is now fully built and has a home.

piston #3 didn't do all that well: http://i289.photobucket.com/albums/ll240/mx3_photo/CIMG2129.jpg http://i289.photobucket.com/albums/ll240/mx3_photo/CIMG2128.jpg http://i289.photobucket.com/albums/ll240/mx3_photo/CIMG2127.jpg The new ones should be much better :D http://i289.photobucket.com/albums/...

dropped to 450
