Re: 4 Cam motor pictures
The best living room mechanical art I've seem was a 9-cylinder radial aircraft engine on the floor with 9 stub exhaust pipes supporting a glass top coffee table. Mabe a 356 without the fan shroud supporting the glass top on the velocity stacks?

Re: 4 Cam motor pictures
Fully dressed 587/3 motor. Doubt it will ever look this good again.
The motor for the 904 project is complete. This is a new motor built from scratch. Retro Design 3D case and heads, original crank, Pauter rods, 9mm stem Ti valves (50mm intake & 43mm exhaust), NOS valve drive shafts/gears, pistons and cylinders. Weber 46IDA carbs. 904 flywheel. Speedco BV distributors and sheet metal. Assembly by Jacques LeFriant and Mike Young with a little help from me.
