I guess since the video is up I need to post some Pics as Wll.

The rear housing was remade to make all the tubes in a line. I also changed the front Tubes with 2 bends at 45 degree angles to offset the rear tubes un like the ones pictured here

I hope you like the engine

WOW !! Uber cool !!!

Did you machine the crankcase by hand or CNC ?? Cylinders ??

 

[T70MkIII]

Beautiful engineering - love the crankcase.

 

[dreeves]

All of the parts were made on manual machines. 1 9inch southbend and with a bridgeport mill at the time without digital readout.

Since then I have aquired a 13 Inch Southbend and A digital readout for the bridgerport

Super nice!

And without even a readout

Is it your own design? I wouldn't mind taking a crack at that crankcase on the new 4 axis CNC we've got coming at work.

KUSTOMKB,

The engine started as rudys 5. I added the five cylinders to the rear. as I guess is part my design but would not have been without Rudys great design. I also had to motify the valve for the five extra cylinders.

dreeves, I have logged onto HMEM everyday for the last year or so and I can't understand how I miss this January video. That engine is fantanstic. :bow: :bow: :bow:
I love the sound of it. I think those air operated engines are just great. Chuck Fellows has prooved that.
