Hello SF2900,
Your rocker is looking fine as if it were new :lol:
Outstanding achievement, thanks für posting! The pitty is, those parts will be hidden under the cab, dirty and will hardly be noticed by watchers standing around. The good thing is: You will know it' on the right place, working as intended :!:
Those rockers are the perfect construction 8) to provide safe and smooth running of that tall engine (just my opinion). Worked out fine with my A, too.
Carry on!

Yes, EE now owns the tooling/molds for the Westinghouse Cross Compound Air Compressor. We have several and will be posting two of them for sale (fully assembled) in a month or so. These are dummy units and not designed to function. Tried to be as faithful to the prototype as possible. Doubtful the sheet metal covers will be made for the top cylinder. I think it looks better without it.
