Love to give that one a go! Looks like some sort of twin row 14cyl. unit.  All the cam gears appear to be inplace waiting for the follower housing and cover to be installed.  Always wanted to work on a large radial.

Bristol?  Sleeve valve?

I'm pretty sure that US radial engines used a single cam ring rotating at some magic fraction of the crankshaft speed with some magic number of bumps, but I don't know what the magic numbers are.

The problem with electric is that once you get the smoke generator and sound system installed, the plane is too heavy.

It appears the negator gear is miss timed to the central pivital mesher that can cause erratic timing. I am no expert on this subject so do some research before ordering any parts. Richard

I think I have one of those in my Buick Encore. Mine does not have that last modification though. Maybe I can get it updated. Ya think?
