No not a switchery-do-hickey. I like that name.
It is does generate horsepower only a small portion of the entire machine is visible in this shot. |

I'll go for a Wright R-3350 engine from the mighty Douglas A-1. Specific variant I don't know.

No to both. It is a radial though. Theador Roosevelt might have liked this if he had been around. A little clue there.

Chopped up by the prop.
This is a Yankee desgin. Another clue; this engine was only used in a few aircraft. One was an impovment on an existing desgin. The other magnesium alloy turn and burn. Last edited by Stealhead; 07-18-14 at 08:27 PM. |

How to provide a clue that wont easily give it away?
It was a production engine not a prototype. It was used by two diffrent bombers as well as two production and one prototype cargo plane. That should help considerably. |
