Will measure the casting now...
I checked the steam cyclopedia, but it doesn't have any actual dimensions of the thing that I can see.
Max,What size pumps were on the prototype you're modeling? UP FEF-3 833 is on display at the Ogden Union Station about 15 miles from my place (not a big distance in Utah) and has dual Westinghouse 8-1/2" Cross Compound Pumps on its pilot. I would be more than happy to take a tape measure and camera down to do some measurements for you tomorrow if your engine has the same size pumps.The last engines built by/for the U.P. had many parts in common, so the Big Boys, late Challengers and FEF-3's had the same size pumps, all located on their pilots.I have been thinking about ordering the Precision Scale Westinghouse Cross Compound 8-1/2" Pumps for superdetailing my Athearn Big Boys, Challengers and de-skirted Kato GS's, so I'd be interested too to see if the Precision Scale part is the right size.I'll check here in the morning for your answer.
