If you are going to run the engine in public it will need a certificate and insurance perhaps some of the engine buffs will help.

I have included some photos of the boiler in question. It was purchased off Ebay from a guy who said it was from a house clearance and didn't know anything about it. so i thought I'd take a chance, not yet tested it myself yet but doesn't look bad. there were 2 for sale at the time, don't know who has the other one.
