Hello Jason,
 
Nice Bing vertical.  You were lucky to find a nice matching burner and stack.

 Did you repair the sight glass ?

  Yes, I know the seller. I'll check out your sight glass repair.  It's a nice engine you have there. I have the largest one from that series, I think they made 4 sizes.

Thats a life goal, the largest bing vertical engine.  I have the 1637 )or 112(? and then also the 130/114   Id love the 116 if i come across it!  51cm high or so!  Life goals for sure!  If you ever sell yours  keep me in mind.
