Damn that looks sweet! Is that some kind of coating? It almost looks like the bowl was turned on a lathe or something  O0

Well Jimbo's been a busy man. Seems the bottom on the old Rogers was less than perfect. A quick trip to an old racing friend and it's all better now:

Where do you find engine "fixtures" like this?  I've lifted a BBC in and out six times today and am getting tired of all the fun.

Thanks, Mark

Another option is to make one yourself, some 3/8" plate and 1.5" tube will set you right. OR you can rent Jim's
