Oh the temptation. Makes me want to build a Victor headed engine for my duster maybe sell off the W5 stuff.

They haven't updated their web site in 4 months. Hard to say what is or isn't in stock simply by a picture, unless I missed something else there.

Do the latest Ritter blocks have all the bugs worked out? Seems like their reputation for quality control is iffy.

From what I have read the new Ritter blocks are much better than the first runs. I don't know if they are perfect but at least some folks seems to be using them with good results.

Looks like a serious chunk of iron. I gave up on SB engines a while back so I'm not interested but it is still cool to see that some guys are carrying the flag.
