    Does it pay to rev the piss out of engine to build air pressure? I have a chart that lists various air compressors and they ALL are rated displacement @1250 rpm. We were all told at driving school that you can rev it all you like, it's not gonna build pressure any faster. Any thoughts?

    I see some e6 and em6 engines for sale. most have side mounted turbo but once in awhile I see one with a rear mounted turbo. were these model specific and if so which models were they made for and why?

    I have seen engines for sale. it appears that they are resting on the oil pan. is it in illusion, or are the oil pans that thick that they can handle the weight without warping?

    yeah I have researched gantry cranes, forklifts, even bobcats and I wanted to know if anyone ever tried a 3 ton engine hoist or would it not be able to lift high enough...

    hey Paul that water tower in the background sure looks like it might say 'MACK' on it. did they have a plant in Syosset back in the day?

    ok so you clarified one thing for this new guy but you added a wrinkle. what is this bridge formula that you speak of? AND MERRY CHRISTMAS BY THE WAY!

    hey paul I saw some engines for sale. one is a 676 with tip turbine (I assume 285 hp) and another 676 with tip turbine (but 350 hp). is this tip turbine the forerunner to the charge air cooler but without the additional radiator?
