Re: The Terry Burtz 5 main bearing engine blocks are back on track.

The real question is, will he really get the traditional 13?

Re: The Terry Burtz 5 main bearing engine blocks are back on track.

What are those flanged items in the flywheel spot in picture #11 (4 of 6)? Flywheels? I don’t see the teeth.

Re: The Terry Burtz 5 main bearing engine blocks are back on track.

I wonder what those workers think about making 90+ year old design blocks? They surely talk about how different they are.

Re: The Terry Burtz 5 main bearing engine blocks are back on track.

I can see that a Model A might not be made for crankcase vacuum. I don't think that engines that use pcv valves and such have paths for fresh air to enter, though.

What is the benefit of fresh air in the crankcase?

I can see where a designed inverted engine like for the Bf-109 would handle the oil in the crankcase, but what they did to convert the B engine would be very interesting.
