Does anyone know if there are any suppliers of castings for Westbury's "Phoenix" 15cc engine? I've checked all the usual suppliers (that I know about) without success.

I have inquired with one of the motor boys who does have castings for quite a lot of the old engines as well as being the custodian of many of Westbury's own engines but it is not one he has castings for.

Thanks for your reply Jason. The reason I'm looking is I've been given a set of plans and part machined castings but the carb and flywheel castings are missing. I guess it will be fabrication time. The crank case, main bearings, cylinder, liner, con rod, and crank are all finished, and the machining appears to be of a high standard. The only problem is the crank appears to be slightly out of true and will require, I think, some judicious straightening.
