Just got 3 pairs of replacement steam cylinders from Ira Keeler today. I will call him tomorrow and go over some minor issues. He asked me to try them and give feedback so I will. The only real issued is the hole for the drive rod, it was a tad to small and a tapered ream quickly fixed that issue. Next, he must epoxy or?? the chrome caps on and the epoxy has filled up the cavity and the piston will not go all the way in. I ran a drill in the hole to clean it out and the problem appears to be solved. Won't be able to get any track testing for a day or so. Sure glad to get these. Some graveyard dogs can now be brought back to life.
