Art West
Great Lakes
This Great Lakes project has an LOM 364 cubic inch 230 HP in line six cylinder inverted fuel injected fully aerobatic engine. Art has made inverted oil and fuel systems for it. All parts are hand made from 87 large sheets of engineering drawings from the 1929 factory plans. This project has very complicated wings with 3 degrees of sweep and 300 parts in each wing.

Proud builder, Art West, shows the progress of his project.
