Hello all:
Many have build very pretty inline engines. The easy ones are made with cox pistons and heads, as they are cheap and readly available. But the problem with the cox, is you end up with a small engine.
I was thinking that during the 80's, many many comertial engines like Enya, Irvine, etc, made engines that the main body was build in 2 parts, the front section, and the main body section, bolted together with screws.
I was thinking that this kind of engines would make life to easy to make an inline engine, for example, getting 2 or 4 of these engines, and putting them one after an other. One will only need to make the cases that adapt one engine to an other, and the main shaft adapted. All the casings, pistons, and heads are already done.
I enclose for example a Moki inline twin made with this kind of idea
Wont it be easy to develope the idea?? Just take the Hex4 engine idea and make it bigger with these irvine kind old engines.
