now go looky looky for one; the 18 cylinder tracto r pull,
and two; the napier 28 cylinder AIR-COOLED radial slide valve engine startup....ten minutes and IT DOESNT START!!!!!!
same engine as what the spruce goose and i think it was the liberator? used....
why dont they use slide/ sleeve valves on a thumpie? i love the idea of them.... no valve springs or bounce means you can rev the suckers right out
oh, if i had a well equipped wrkshop and a fat wallet...the things id make...
