Hispano Suiza made under license by Wright. That engine alone is worth about 50 thou
Dual superchargers?
And I think this is a Liberty airplane engine

My pap made a career working at the "Buick". Somewhere I have a picture of him holding steady a Liberty crankshaft for a photograph. The Liberty had a full oil pressure lube in the crank. He always referred to the sbc as an airplane motor because it, too, had full pressure lube. Thanks for the memories.
ReplyDeleteyou're sure welcome! My pleasure to stumble across something to make your day! My job here is done!
DeleteLYCOMING...ooh, LIBERTY AIRPLANE...uh ha, DUAL SUPERCHARGED HEMI..aaaha, HISPANO SUIZA...o oh god, yes! Crap. There goes my shorts.
ReplyDeleteDamn you Jesse Bowers this is supposed to be family friendly!
lol... this is never been family friendly. You'll read a rant on that tomorrow. This has been just my outlet for expressing my admiration for cool stuff, tanks, trains, planes, machine shop stuff, engines, artists, dragsters etc. If I get some friends to lose their guts in one way or another I figure that I've done a better than usual job of finding content to share today! Mission accomplished! But seriously I do a rated R blog, its just rare that I push the envelope
Deleteoh yeah, if you dig it, push a Google + button on either the post or the one for the blog
DeleteThat's why I tune in to your blog. I love analogue mechanical stuff too.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a mechanic, but have hobby'd my way around engined things for a while now, and I cant see myself giving it up any time soon.
I suppose its a bit like herpes, once its in your blood it stays with you for the rest of your life.
About that R blog......where for art thou?
well, I'm not posting spread eagle women giving you the obstetrics view, but like this morning's rant, and stuff in the past, I let my flag unfurl occasionally and give both barrels into some jackass's head when I get pissed off. I post shootings and other shit, and I don't censor. The website I do of beautiful women is http://isonlyskindeep.tumblr.com/
DeleteSorry young fella, I'm not into gynaecology, but I do like to have a non politically correct rant about what pisses me off too. Perhaps I was quietly hoping for a blog somewhere that may have a Festivus agenda. You know, where you get to tell everyone how much they have disappointed you and alike.
ReplyDeleteC'mon don't let it get to you. One goose is not representative of the faithful.
