I have a reproduction of a Sipp catalog, what year it represents I know not, but it looks to be early century in style and tone. In it, they do list blueprints as included with the casting kits.

That being said, I have never seen such a set offered anywhere, but if anyone on the Forum has a set, I'd bet on it being Gil.
You may be right, Daniel. I don't know quite where they are after our move but I do believe I have a set. When I find them I will let you all know.

It isn't any too surprising about you not being able to lay your hands on certain low priority items after a long drawn-out multi-phase move involving multiple locations.

However, should you ever find any useable Sipp plans, for either the 1/4 or 1/2 horsepower horizontal engines, I would happily help pay for any costs in getting them scanned and sent should you be so inclined.
