Dalton, Georgia, United States

You are bidding on an WWII War era Overhaul Manual, Part No 46966 for the TWIN WASP C SERIES ENGINES by Pratt and Whitney Aircraft. This manual is about 380 pages comprised of many detailed folded/pull-out diagrams and detailed lithographs showing and illustrating the different parts of the engine and how to service and dismantle or build the engines. It says that it was revised in July, 1942.
The Table of contents list the various chapters as: I. Disassembly of Engine into Sub-Assemblies; II. Disassembly of Sub-Assemblies; III. Cleaning; IV. INSPECTION; V. Repair and Assembly of Sub-Assemblies; VI. Assembly of Engines; VII. Run-in of Engines After Overhaul; VIII. Preparation of Engine After Run-In; IX. Carburetors; X. Magnetos; XI. Ignition Wire Manifold and Radio Shielding; XII. Fuel Pumps; XIII. Spark Plugs; XIV. Automatic Oil Temperature Control; XV. Gun Synchronizer; APPENDIX which includes Tightening Torque Recommendations, Table of Clearances and Charts for Tables of Clearances and Lubrication Diagrams. As you can see and as you probably know, these manuals are very complete with all of those detailed diagrams that I mentioned above. This manual is housed in a heavy duty folder that is in good shape as you may be able to see from the first two pictures. The condition of the inside pages are excellent with the exception of the first page which shows bug damage and slight foxing. The first couple of pages have slight damage but only to the very outer margin. Most of the rest of the pages appear to be in great shape with maybe one or two showing some smudging, etc. Overall it is in great shape for its age. Please note that shipping will be media mail that includes insurance. The winner must pay for the item within 7 days after the auction ends or it will be resold. Please ask questions in advance of bidding because I do not take returns on vintage books and paper items. Thanks for your interest in this great Pratt-Whitney Overhaul Manual. Good luck bidding. |

Paul Walker talks about the Lexus LFA
Fri, 27 Dec 2013Our friends at Lexus, spurred by our reminiscing, sent us this interview conducted with Paul Walker when he drove the Lexus LFA at Willow Springs earlier this year. It hasn't yet been released on Lexus' official channels, and we would be remiss not to share it. He loved the car.
Porsche 918 Spyder with Weissach Package does 0-62 mph in 2.6 seconds
Mon, 18 Nov 2013Porsche 918 Spyder with Weissach Package does 0-62 mph in 2.6 seconds The trio of hypercars currently vying for the title of the ultimate supercar – McLaren P1, LaFerrari and Porsche 918 Spyder – have all taken similar – but different – routes to performance, although they’ve all ended up with remarkably similar statistics. But the Porsche 918 Spyder has already scored a direct hit with a record time of 6:57s round the Nurburgring and now, ahead of the first customer cars finally reaching their homes, Porsche has revealed improved performance for the 918 Spyder with the Weissach Package fitted. Performance from 0-62mph is just 2.6 seconds (2.8 seconds without the Weissach Package), 124mph is reached in 7.2 seconds (0.5s quicker) and 186mph in 19.9 seconds (2.1 s quicker).
Porsche Cayenne (2011) undisguised
Sun, 10 Jan 2010The Porsche Cayenne 2010 / 2011 undisguised is ready for a launch at Geneva in March We’ve seen spy shots of the 2011 Porsche Cayenne on a pretty regular basis over the last year as Porsche works to fettle the new Cayenne before a launch at the Geneva Motor Show in March. But with that debut looming we now see shots of the new Porsche Cayenne out and about all but undisguised. Porsche are attempting to address criticisms of the current Cayenne by making the new Cayenne a much more road-focused car and by shedding weight from what is, by any standards, a heavyweight SUV.
