I think our host also sells them.
I could put it together without instructions on the engine bit, but I'd need a hint on adhesive and how the electric motor installs.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.

You betcha! No instructions... and even some parts left over!

ps: mine is coming, but the English version. Hopefully the same quality, it's also by Franzis

I say I can but I bought these and a couple others in 2000 and still haven't touched them. I thought I would but I like them just like they are so I guess not.

I'm not far from John Walker. If I run into problems, I'll take it to his shop.

Well, I couldn't so like every time I get stuck, Youtube! A German kid put one together and watched his video several times until a got it. He did make some mistakes in one take then the next take the mistake was corrected. I made two mistakes heads/cam tower upside down and didn't install the oil return tubes. Other than that success!

That reminds me of when I spun a rod bearing in my inline 6 77 Datsun 280Z (low oil condition 6000 RPM). I tore it down, fixed all the problems, and re-assembled without ever looking at instructions (google/youtube didn't exit) The only thing I looked up was the firing order. It ran great after the plug wires were in order.
