Engines for sale

Now that my Douglas FT35 gen-set has gone to pastures new, the clear-out has revealed other items: Norman T600 a runner with fuel tank and pepper-pot exhausts. Workman-Reed genset on substantial trolley. 240vac and comes with two alternators and two PAZ1 engines. All worked when I put them away a few years back. Though that's no guarantee that they will now of course!

You and us all!

Ooh, tempting. What's a model 55? Capacity / rpm / rough power?

Twin Cylinder water-cooled two-stroke, the stationary engine version is a little bit rarer than the marine versions. Peter

Er - no. It is a Model five but with two heads & barrels on a common crankcase. Air cooled, side valve 800+cc. Very sexy finned exhaust manifold.

Nice looking engine & rarely seen .

I have access to a completely dismantled one with hardly any wear if anyone is interested.

Apologies, I read P55 ! (smacks wrist!)

Ah. Showing my ignorance here, but I didn't realise it wasn't a V

Indeed. Rather similar finning to Dad's MG J2 (850 OHC straight-4 - camshaft drive is a vertical shaft with bevels, which is also the dynamo rotor! All great fun until the upper oil seal leaks into the brushgear...)
