Looking over the "plans" I have reveals the plans are not useful for machining and only provide a rudimentary idea of what the motor looks like. It seems to me that either someone needs to contact Clark Lord and find out where Dr. Carol Hormuth can be contacted (mind you the "plans" may be the same as I have (simply assembly plans, not machinist, drafting, or engineering drawings). Another idea might be to disassemble and engine and scan each part full sized front and back and side to give people a better idea of how the valves, motor, and gears were designed.
From: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg14092.html " never liked the odor of the 30w motor oil and I tended to not use the smoke system except as a one or two lap demonstration. I sold the engine to Dr. Carol Hormuth several years ago. He had one without the smoke system and bought mine so he could have one with a smoke system. I no longer have any plans as I gave them to Dr. Hormuth when I sold the engine. The main thing to remember is that the smoke stack is sealed from the flue gases and only the engine exhaust (and steam/oily mixture) goes up the stack.

The darn assembly instructions are on 11 x 17 paper leading at least my memory to think "big means real plans". If anyone wants me to get these scanned full sized or to scan only the crude drawings I can do that. ~ Gary - Steaming over Terror Trestle http://community.webshots.com/user/raltzenthor http://www.angelfire.com/or/trainguy/ _______________________________________________ SSLiveSteam mailing list Send messages: [email protected] Cancel subscription: http://postfix.45mm.com/mailman/listinfo/sslivesteam Rules: http://www.45mm.com/sslivesteam_guide.html
