I have a Jetster 20 I would like to build this winter, I am only missing the engine header and pipe. I think the header is the hardest thing to find. Can you PM me if you want to get rid of it?

That is what I love about this forum and what it's all about. I have a ton of .049 to RK 40 sized stuff and documentation, but not much this large. My 90 sized stuff is all Byron.

Any chance of finding NIB BVM kits around? I've been looking but haven't turned up anything yet. The Tom Cook site is nice, but no kits there.
