O&R compact III 1hp engine.
Hello everyone, enjoy this forum and have gotten alot of great advice. I have a brand new O&R engine air cooled version with the all the options offered by Octura Models along time ago. My plans are to install this in the sterling chris craft corvette. I can't locate the water cooled cylinder head offered by Octura Models. Who out there can make a water cooled jacket for this cylinder. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards

My gawd, an OLD Ohlson & Rice engine 
Talk about the EARLY days of gasoline engines for hobby applications ... Wow !!
Most likely a machinist will be making the water jacket for you.
Cool project tho [sm=thumbup.gif]
