Put my hand to another Motor Boys International engine, a diesel designed by I.J. van Leeuwen in 1943. The Nova 1 is a bit of a thumper with a .630” bore and .866” stroke. Made it from solid with a 7075AL rod, C12L14 cylinder, CI piston, 6061 crankcase. Used JB Weld to attach the transfer tube and carb mount. Made a AL lap and used chrome polish on the bore. That worked pretty well.
Thanks for looking.
