Magnum V-Twin Compressed Air Engine
.5 C.I. , two cylinder Compressed air engine.
Complete with push rods, dual throttle plate carb, coil, miniature spark
plugs and generator.
Most of the engine is Brass that has been
chemically blacked, using brass black. the pistons are graphite with an
aluminum core and steel pin. I am presently working on an improved valve
design that will do away with steel balls. the crank runs on two 1/8th "
precision flanged ,sealed ball bearings with Delrin bushings on the
connecting rods.
