For you guys in the know. Again, who knows, everyone has dreams!!!!!!
Hi John. Thank you for the links. I checked out the web sites and they both
look good. It was great talking with you last night. Hearing the frustration
you have over the current technology is very motivating to me, I feel the
same way. I know I could take over the piston engine market if I had my
project at 100%. I looked at the planes and molds you made, very impressive.
Attached is a picture of the 9 axis CNC machine and a picture of my engine.
The picture has the valve covers and lots of parts missing and also a lot of
transparent parts. I am sending you this picture in the strictest
confidence. Please do not let it out of your hands. Feel free to talk about
it as much as you want with your pilot friends. Some of the important facts
about my engine are as follows.
1. Billet crankshaft
2. Billet camshafts (hollow)
3. All aluminum cylinder head and cases. We are using a special aluminum
that an engineer friend said would be the best. It's a custom blend that has
high heat resilience. Not that my engine is going to get too hot, but incase
of a coolant leak, I intend to be able to use the engine at 50% power to get
to a safe landing place.
4. Redundant oil pumps
5. Dry sump oil system
6. Full FADEC
7. Overhead cams
8. Redundant water pumps
There is a lot more info, but you get the idea. Also, we have a 4,6 and 8
cylinder. All engines will have turbo as an option. The displacement of the
engines runs from 245 cubic inches to over 700 cubic inches. The power
levels run from 150 hp to over 800 hp. The weight of the unit will be very
close to existing engines in all sizes. All engines will be much more fuel
efficient and produce much more HP per cubic inch than the status quo.
Enjoy,
Eric Wolf.
