Mesa, Arizona, United States
Condition:Used

A very nice un molested Rolls Royce Gnome free-shaft axial flow gas turbine jet engine mostly complete with reduction gearbox. This engine unit is from a helicopter possibly a Sikorsky CH-124 Sea King.
A rare opportunity to own one of these engines with a gearbox attached. Appears to be complete with all oil pumps pipework ect still in place. There is no starter motor with it.
Gearbox input 22,000 rpm and output shaft runs approximately 6500 rpm. Makes around 1200 + hp.

Overall condition looks very good with wiring labels still in place, most all sheet metal shrouds, firewall with what appears to be complete plumbing and wiring.  The engine section rotates freely as does the turbine fan and reduction gear box. 

This engine has an early electronic fuel control fitted but also has a mechanical system to allow manual operation overriding the electronics.

Research reflects that the RR Gas turbines were very similar to the GE T58 US Gas Turbine Engine.  Ask any questions before bidding and good luck.

Lexus RC-F (2014) first teaser shot

Mon, 09 Dec 2013

By Ollie Kew First Official Pictures 09 December 2013 17:00 Lexus has confirmed a new F-model coupe will have wheels, a large vent inspired by the old IS-F super-saloon, and trademark ‘Ultra Blue’ paint. This is the joy of teaser shots – a supposedly exciting drip-feed of detail pictures that actually make a car’s final reveal a complete anti-climax. Take note, Mini Vision concept and Corvette Z06… Though Lexus won’t confirm as much (oh, the teases!), we’re expecting to see the hot new RC-F coupe launched at the Detroit motor show in January 2014.

-- South Korea's automotive legacy may not be as rich as, say, Czechoslovakia's, but don't tell collector Baek Joong-gil that. Not to his face, anyway. He might be behind the wheel of one of his five hundred cars, which includes such rarities as the Kia T-600 (Kia's first car, built under license from Mazda in 1963); the Cadillac Fleetwood of former president Park Chung-hee; and Korea's oldest fire truck.

Jaguar C-X16 Revealed: It may be the XE, but it’s no E-Type Jag

Wed, 07 Sep 2011

Jaguar C-X16 - innovative under the skin We’ve known the new small sports car from Jaguar – which may or may not become the Jaguar XE – was heading for Frankfurt for some time. Especially after we had teases of the Concept version – the Jaguar C-X16 – a few weeks ago. So it was no surprise when we had a heap of new photos and a video of the C-X16 drop in to our inbox at midnight.
