Turbine Tech

Put a star washer between the electronic ignition box mounting hole and the fire wall. If the box has a bad ground the engine may run bad or fail to start.

Found the best way to ruin an engine for good is to put about a half cup of Barrs Leak radiator sealant in the crank case. Run the engine for a while to get it to running temp and shut it down . Last time you will do that. Don't think it will work ? Try it on your lawn mower. Them motors are cheap.

Well, SMS

Does your original engine have the crank drilled through at the pilot bushing hole to feed the fluid drive ? If it does , the replacement engine must be that way or the fluid coupling won't get any oil.

I have eight exhaust valves, valve springs, spring retainers and seat washers for a Chrysler product Dodge 2.2 Liter, Twin cam Shelby engine. It is about a 1989 vintage engine. Not really sure what year it is. Took them out of a running engine to be replaced by a set of racing valves. $100.00 .

And you are located where ?

He will not part out his stuff.

I have a friend that has a few old Chevy/ GMC trucks. I will see if he will part with a hood. If he has one ,I will take some pics of it and you can decide.

I worked in power plant development at a large automotive company in Michigan . I worked in all the "special" power plant areas. Turbine, electric, hydrogen and steam. I was assigned to the steam car development crew. My job was to build a steam car from the ground up just to prove it wouldn't work. We hand built the boiler, engine and transmission. There were always parts or safety factor that were incorporated into the system to make it fail. When we found a remedy , it was not allowed to be tested. One of the favorite problems was the start up time. There is a requirement that an automobile must be able to start and be moving within twenty seconds in sub zero climate. I had a fix for that but they refused to look at it.They plainly wanted to take the budget money but did not want to give the gas engine any competition. They just plainly make too much money on the reciprocating gas and diesel engines. The turbine car that Chrysler Corp had at the Indy race didn't fail a bearing like they said, They simply shut it down on the back stretch to make the spectators think the engine failed. You guys ever hear about the Micro Wave Boiler?

Thought maybe you had some V6 parts laying around and that could be from another engine. I saw that you had a four in your TC.

Looks like the head was casted June 24, 1928

Chrysler had an experimental F head V8 back in 1945.
