What are you happy with and what would you change with their kit? Was there much fettling and fitting involved?

[@musicalmaintenance]

It is a fantastic kit, I don’t have much to complain about. Most of the changes I have made have been down to personal preference. This kit took quite a bit of fettling, as we bought it second hand we could not get many replacement parts when things did not fit correctly. If you buy kits directly from STW they are always happy to replace a component of it is not how it should be.

I would recommend a new mechanical lubricator, and springs on the slide valves as two definite changes that will drastically improve the engines performance.

@@musicalmaintenance thank you for your insight. I may be in the market for one of their 6" scale offerings in the near future.

I'd say she blows a lot of minds. I've got to ask have you ever been stopped by the cops?

[@musicalmaintenance]

Fortunately no, they have seen us and left us alone. We have a SMV sign on the back and a big LED flasher.
