Thank you my friends for the good word.  :)
I decided to make small upgrade of the engine.  ;)
To set the levers of valves had to be cut timing gear.  :o





Then I made holes for the  axles .



Then I made holes in the levers.





Timing system was reassembled again.  ;D



The levers are ready for installation.









Whole timing gear has been mounted to the engine.





Now they have been installed valve springs.





Now is the time for the spark plugs.







Then came time for the installation of wiring.









Above you can see small tragedy,  :'(  the two spark plugs have chosen the freedom.  :-X

The engine is almost ready.





That nothing more is not lost, I did such a case. The inspiration was this image taken from Wngnuth.








And now I can safely proceed to further work on my model.  ;D

Adam.

Adam, may I ask you what kind of red wiring you used for your engine that still makes me envious every time I look at it?
Best wishes
