Kingster Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 Shameless copy post from locostbuilders http://theoldmotor.com/?p=136808 5 litre v8 only 470kg and at 110 yrs old still does hill climbs! I love the exposed valve gear and how the equally exposed camshaft gets oiled with a can before starting! this is worth a look 4 Quote
Steve (sdh2903) Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 That engine is like a piece of art. Stunning. "all cornering is conducted sideways" Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 Wow, inside out engine, solid rear axle and originally permanently open auxiliary exhaust ports on the heads; that must have been an interesting drive! What a lovely looking car though, even though it's a contemporary recreation, using period parts, it really does look like it belongs. Quote
Captain Colonial Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 Bet it uses less oil than a crossflow, too. 1 Quote
Thrustyjust Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 Bet it uses less oil than a crossflow, too. Looks in one picture, its parked where a crossflow has been !! Quote
