Post for the caps I’m making is up in the private classifieds section. I’m not sure if I qualify for vendor classifieds just yet so I located it in the private section. You’ll find more details and pricing there. Have a good weekend!

Hopefully Cody won’t mind, I’ll add his pictures in again, in case someone didn’t see them in the other post.

Private Classifieds / Billet steel cross bolt main caps
« Last post by bluef100fe on October 30, 2025, 01:33:33 PM »
I’ve got multiple pairs of these billet caps nearing completion and figured I should put the listing up sooner than later. I will offer them in pairs for position 2 and 4. I can sell you a cap for position 3 thrust bearing as well but it would be up to the installer/machinist/end user to machine fit the faces of the new cap to the block to blend them together so the bearing seats properly and results with the proper amount of thrust clearance. With my current shop rate, material prices, tooling prices,etc the math for this batch of caps came out to $160 per piece. Shipping/insurance is extra and varies depending on location and if you want two or three caps. Please direct message me if you would like to purchase. I accept USPS money order, certified bank checks, and personal checks but there will be a waiting period for those checks to clear before I ship you the parts. Please include your shipping address and if you want two or three caps (or more) so I can figure out a total for you with shipping and insurance included.

Thanks for the space Jay,

Working on this basket case 67 Fairlane, installing the headlights. High beams on top or bottom? Two prong bulb high? I should know this but it"s been a long time.   Thanks!

Pneumatic pressure can be extremely dangerous.

Google search "pressure testing steam engine boilers", to see how they do it safely.

They never pressure test with air, only liquid.
That may not be practical for testing an engine block.


Here's one example of pressure testing a boiler for a model steam engine.
