Looking people who have inverted motors and would like to talk about
it.
That engine is not the easiest to find. It was a lightweight aluminum V-8
installed in Buicks and Oldsmobiles during the seventies. It turned the
prop at crankshaft speed, had high compression, and put Steve Wittman into
the bushes a couple of times. The last I paid any attention to the engine
it had been sold by GM to Rover and was being used in Land Rovers.
A man adapted a similar engine to his Beachner Special and flew it for
several hundred hours, but not inverted, until it killed him.
