How To: C15a Wire-3 restoration

[Phil Waterman]

Hi Jordan

Out of curiosity are you going to paint the tips of the fan?

Reason I ask is that I've gone over to painting the outer 2 inches of the fan blades front and back either white or red for safety reasons. It hurts when you gets your fingers hit. I paint both front and back because if you paint only the back side there is one angle looking from the right that all you see is edge and the front of the blade.

Looks like you are getting close to running the engine on the test stand, so much nicer to find those little leaks or noises when the engine is out of the truck. Have also found it is a lot easier to run the engine though a couple of heat cycles and re-torque the head. Adjusting the valves is so easy when you can walk around the engine.

Looking forward to the first engine run video.

Nice work on the fan shroud.

Cheers Phil
