Vintage Daimler ( England ) Hemi Engine 278 Cu In Aluminum Heads on 2040-parts.com
Santa Fe Springs, California, United States
|
Here is a rare opportunity to own a brilliant Hemi V8 I have one in my 1932 Ford Roadster ( fits a stock firewall & no hood bulges ) I bought this rare beast ( one of 2044 made ) from Jim Jacobs & realize I'm not going to need a 2nd engine as mine has proved super reliable so this is for sale as is.
The engine is 4.5 liter ( 278 cu.in. ) It has a cast iron block with Aluminum heads , weighs just 500# , cast aluminum oil pan I have converted it to an aluminum pulley but otherwise it is stock . If required I can help with converting it to a modern trans ( mine I converted to put a T5 stick trans behind it & it's been a blast to drive) I have outside headers I made & also a 3 carb manifold to fit Stromberg carbs to , available in separate auctions. Any Questions can be answered by calling LimeWorks Speedshop , I will do my best to answer any questions you may have. Parts are now available ie bearings, pistons/rings & gaskets from England. My engine was built by Jay Steel at Taylor engines before parts were available so a decent machine shop can help out. Every engine was blueprinted & hand assembled at the factory in England Quality of build is amazing. Check out Wikipedia for Daimler V8 engines for the story. There are a few photos showing what the engine can look like & it runs amazingly. Engine turns over freely by hand . Send me your zip code I can get a price for freight shipping & I can get it strapped to a pallet . |

Mercedes-AMG GT shows off its interior in New York
Wed, 16 Apr 2014We're getting our first official look at elements of the upcoming Mercedes-AMG GT sports car ahead of an expected September debut. The new two-seater, originally rumored to be called the Mercedes-Benz SLC, indirectly replaces the SLS AMG, becoming the second stand-alone model to be conceived, engineered and produced by Mercedes' AMG performance car offshoot at its headquarters in Affalterbach on the outskirts of Stuttgart, Germany. Mercedes has controversially eschewed any traditional reference to one of its founders, Karl Benz, in the name of its new 500-hp-plus twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8-powered machine.

Like it or not, autonomous cars are here -- almost
Fri, 03 May 2013One of the odder things about living in "the future" is that things develop so gradually, hardly any of the really amazing things we're exposed to every day seem amazing or futuristic. If the iPhone had just appeared from nowhere in 2007, there would have been riots, demonstrations and legislation. But since we had a Blackberry first, and dedicated cellphones before that, the iPhone and its progeny were never quite shocking.
