snow holley is in Colorado, and that engine sat outside since the early 1900's , after being retired from pumping out mine I think.. They re furbished it, put a structure over it , and it's now a popular tourist attraction at a state park.. she's a beast, considering how long it lasted neglected in the Cold Colorado weather left to decay.. I guess none of the big bits were affected, butI'm sure she needed some pretty extensive work on the cams, bearing and exposed components before this video was aired.. with all the crazyness in the world today it's nice to see there's enthusiasm for these old historical power plants..

I saw a big engine at the county fair. It looked like about a 4 foot stroke with a 1 1/2 foot bore. It was pulling a grist mill, and running about 60 RPM (I counted). I was impressed that it didn't have an intake cam, and was pulling its charge through a valve wth a weak spring. I think it was a Fairbanks Morse.

I saw an intact Pratt & Whitney Wasp engine at the aviation museum in Gander, Newfoundland a couple of years ago. For the time, they were state of the art and powered a number of different aircraft. That someone was able to take a (presumably damaged) engine and turn it into a V-Twin motorcycle engine is just plain cool.

Another great video, your spoken English is getting better by the video, and just think; most people complaining about your accent don't speak a foreign language at the same level or at all. I like these big, slow engines as they show clearly all the functioning parts and some of these explain the principle of the internal combustion engine just by the sound they make, suck, squeeze, bang and blow.

Way back in the late 1930s the Engine designer Stuart Tresilian told Rolls Royce they should halve their engine capacity and at least double the revs. He had all the necessary calculations and was supported by Henry Ricardo (who ran test bed engines for RR). The management refused, and to be fair be fair they did get considerable power from the Merlin. Sadly they refused to even run a test programme. Tresilian went on to design small capacity Formula One race engines which won the championship. Today we have high revving 1 litre bike engines that make 200bhp. The supercharged Merlin only ever managed about 60bhp per litre.

At 6:52 the lower part of the sign(regarding the history of the engine) says: Its Denmark's largest horizontal diesel engine, which from new powered an electric installation belonging Aalborg Elforsyning(Aalborg Power Supply). A minesweeper belonging to the Danish fleet sunk close to Jernhatten(location) in 1947- the almost new minesweeper was equipped with a Lister Blackstone dieselengine which was recovered, renovated and sold to Aalborg Elforsyning(Aalborg Power Supply). The Deutz engine was part of a trade. Around 1947 the Deutz engine was powering Vibæk(town) sawmill near Ebeltoft(town), where it was in service until 1971. The engine has gone through renovation in 2009-9.
