Edit: Oh. I finally got that. More likely to find it in a puddle of ATF here. Great for weighing Governer weights out of an A904!

Those are too pretty to put inside a crankcase. Now you need to build a Lexan block with chromed crank and pistons to show them off. Like a life-sized version of the old Revel model kit. Or, you could find a windowed cast iron block and finish cutting it all away.
