I am glad you enjoyed the video. Sounds like your uncle had a good story to tell! I hope you wrote some of it down. If not, might do what you remember. We owe him a lot. To me, warbird Angie s really do make music.
All of those P-40s had these and love the lope it has at idle. It also has a smooth roar unlike the Merlin's raspy growl. Watched them with the Unlimited Hydro boats. What a blast.
I think the P-63 sounds good with the 24 exhaust stacks. One stack for each of the exhaust valves. Two per cylinder. It is amazing what people did with these engines.
Glad you liked it. The noise, heat, and smell was incredible. Joe was very nice to run this for me and he wanted to teach me as much as he could in the short time I had to visit. Glad to share.
Thank you. I spent a couple hours in Joe’s hangar today. He is a walking encyclopedia on engines. He was so kind to show me around and run that engine.
@@richardmoren5822 Awesome idea. Maybe an El Camino with the engine in the back? As for a semi, an Autocar with flaming stacks would be my choice. The engine you see running was in a P-38 a while back until it had problems. Joe rebuilt it for static running. He has enough parts to build about 100 engines.
I can say that this engine was smooth when I put my hand on the frame of the control stand. He also showed a Merlin connecting rod sitting beside an Allison connecting rod. The Allison rod was a lot more heavy duty in its construction.
Allison rods are used in the highly modified Merlins used in planes at the Reno National AirRaces for that very reason. Strength. Engines producing power 2.5 times their original design limits
The Allison was not used at high altitude nor did it have a 3 stage supercharger. Watch a twin Merlined Mossie out climb a single engine aircraft then you know why the Merlin was a success. It had a huge max altitude. The Allison was none the less a great piece of engineering!
Agreed. And the heat was noticeable from where I stood. Those were P-38 manifolds turned backwards. The engine was one the failed in Lefty Gardener’s P-38 and Joe rebuilt it.

What a beauty. Looks good, sounds better. Thanks for sharing.
Literal music to my ears.
My uncle, long dead, flew the P-40 in Africa and Italy.

That awesome engine starts the smoothest yet , thank you !
Thanks for the comment. It really is glassy smooth. Like a car engine but way more powerful.

And the P38 Lighting with a Allison on each wing
That's awesome!! What a beast

One of the bad ass engines ever produced.
It truly is a work of art produced with slide rules, pencils, and dedicated people.
Nice video!

poorest video there could be just poor
You could build a rat rod semi truck with this engine. ❤😂🎉😅😊

I would like to see that mounted in a Toyota Prius. Belching fire as it crawls through the mall parking lot.
I would like that too. Although you’d have to stretch it a lot. Gear it low and let it crawl along.
Joe got my Allison running a dit ago.Checkout Athol Graham/ Saturday of Salt Lake
You bust be Butch then. An amazing car with a steadfast drive of survive. I’d like to see it in person some day.

I’ve run the Bell P-63 King Cobra and heard Mr Yancey’s engine. But that thing in a car must be overwhelming. The sound and heat is incredible.
The Allison is so much smoother than the Rolls-Royce Merlin.

very very dumb video
Thank you for your comment. It is impossible for everyone to see eye to eye. I hope you find something smart to watch someday soon.
Go read a cereal box maybe ? That's likely more your intelligence level
Glowing manifolds 😊😊😊😊.
