       Re: Vintage Saito Steam Model V4PR

       Sorry, but the engine you have listed is NOT a Saito V4PR, but
       rather some other make (possibly home-built from plans) of V4
       engine. Yours is a single acting oscillator, while the Saito
       V4PR is a single acting fixed cylinder engine. It appears you
       have the correct box for a V4PR, and also the correct plans, but
       if you compare those plans to the engine you are showing, you
       will see that they are not the same!
       All that being said, the engine that you are showing looks to be
       a very nice engine with reversing throttle valve and is no doubt
       a very capable engine that would be highly desirable for the
       proper application ... like say a nice launch for instance!
       Ah, yes, the plans for the engine that you have listed here, are
       to be found on the internet as being designed by Julius de Waal,
       as seen here:

       Hope that helps!

       Excellent, yes, that is now a correct description of what you
       have on offer!
       Best of luck with your sale, that really does look to be a fine
       engine!!!

       It is Jan Gunnarsson's V-4 design.
       The plans and build instructions are in the book
       "Steam & Stirling Engines You Can Build"
       This book includes plans for the boiler, pumps, gas burners,
       etc.
       It begins around page 92 and goes through page 152.
       Here:

       You can still find this book.
