Just been asked to make adapter plates to fit beer taps to a Lancia elgine block. I will go on the bar in his pub.

Looks like a Cider engine to me

… especially as it's already fallen over.

Thanks for sorting out the photo Neil. I think it may have had one or two Michael!
What you can’t see is the inch thick plate with an 11 degree taper between the head and manifold to bring the taps horizontal,just needs polishing.

Interestingly the Exif information says the image should be rotated…

I think the problem when this happens is people (or the camera) turn them the 'right way up' in a way that doesn't actually rotate the file.

You want the proper stuff not the commercial rubbish.A small farm in the heart of Gloucestershire a single track road you sit there quietly sipping your glass until he has blended it to your taste from three massive vats at the end of the bar,he then fills up your 5 gallon barrel and you get up and realize you could be very close to the drink drive limit.

Does seem a shame to put strongbow in it

I remember The Halfway Inn between Aberystwyth and Rheidol Falls. It was serve yourself straight from the barrel, often with perry and cider as well as real ale. Around 84 hey fitted bars to the taps because some people couldn't turn off taps that just kept going round and round!

The Strongbow tap was the only tap he had spare. Should be pumping Italian soon.

Just adding a beer amp I just finished.

Six taps on the back.

And some handles and label holders too add some machining,.

I suppose it is a valve amplifier?
