Great place for a show. The auto museum is pretty small display for the asking price, but the aerospace museum is incredible, well worth whatever they ask for admission. More vintage radial engines o

My understanding is that all (or at least most) radial engines had an odd number of cylinders in each bank. I don't know why, but recall seeing 7, 14 and 21 cylinder engines. Peace, Pat

Sure, you can divide 360 by 7, just don't expect to get an even number of degrees. Nothing says it has to be, except our sense of symmetry. It's pretty easy on a radial engine. V-type engines are tou

Hey Craig, did you have to cut into the crossmember to get that thing into your roadster? Talk about an engine swap! Paul Bauman Westminster, CA 67 1600 --Original Message-- From: owner-datsun-roadst

The last iteration of the Pratt & Whitney turbo-compound radials used in the DC7s and Super Connies were 4 row 36 cylinder monsters. Just think, with dual ignition that's 288 spark plugs to change pe

Absolutely! And it was the associated mechanical complexity (thousands of wearing, precision machined parts and seals) and maintenance intensity (multiple of man-hours per flight hour) of the Turbo C

Of interest to note, at least I think so, is that the auto industry today really miss-uses the term intercooler when refer to turbos. The U.S. was the only WW II combatant to use a combination of sup

The basic engine was the P&W R4360 and had 4 banks of 7 cylinders arranged in a spiral to help cooling. It had 7 dual mags, One mag for each bank. The US Navy tried it in the Corsair but did not get
