I really hate changing the subject....but to answer your question.....

So my inquiry about the WWI Beardmore engine and a modern alternative might have been better served on the "Replica" thread. This I concede. I was anticipating a wealth of Forum advice and information regarding the Beardmore and if an alternative was available that would closely match the WWI engine's specs. *I think I will have to do more work on my own and post more specific questions in different areas of the forum.

Jim,
I continue because the thread was WWI engineS...Not one engine.....

OH ?!? *
I believe Topgun56 opens a research opportunity. *Perhaps a data table of all WWI A/C engines could be compiled. *The engines would be arranged by nationality, type and version. *The table could contain columns for hp, torque, rpm, stroke, bore, compression, displacement, fuel type and octane, dry wt. and wet wt, etc. Maybe even a column of the best matched modern alternative.
