Tank Engines
:
I have just acquired 5 of the following.
Leyland L60 6-cylinder (12-piston) liquid-cooled two-stroke multi-fuel producing 750hp at 2100rpm, they have a dirty great big blower on the top that makes them scream, A truly wonderful sound.
The tanks were scraped and the engines crated and stored.
Two we are keeping
Looking for best offers
Also looking for anyone that fancy’s building something outrageous

:shock: :shock: :shock:
Ooooh... where to start....
Just out of interest (sadly such a project is beyond my scope at the moment) how physically big are the engines?
:
Aprox: 5 foot long, 4 foot high, 2.5foot wide all ish sixes, there are loads of parts atached that are not engine, the blower is a monster, sadley we only have 4 gearboxes.
The sound is somthing you should hear
Was thinking of trailer mounting one to go around a few shows, i would like to make a giant foghorn but something that moves would be good
Singlefin:
Hmm... that'd go in the back of a LWB.
With a fuel tank where the engine normally is... :?

That reminds me.
Did you ever see that episode of 'Coltranes, Planes & Automobiles' (or whatever it was called) wiith the Don Garlits Drag-racing museum with the V8 powered Fog-Horn.
It showed the camera crew in complete aural agony :lol: :lol: :lol:
