Wright- Morehouse engines

Post by Paul Agaliotis »

I just dug out a Wright-Morehouse engine used on the Roche Light Plane, the prototype C2 Aeronca. I have some new crankshaft forgings, rod forgings and rocker arm stand-offs most of the parts needed. But I am in need of some of the smaller parts and a couple of aluminum castings. If you know of anyone that has some of these engine parts for sale or to reverse engineer. I'm in the market.
If I can't locate parts I can only build up a static display, I don't see wasting time on a static piece. I would like to make this a running example.

Paul , This does not address the Morehouse engine , but I'm having trouble with getting messages through on this site . You had contacted me about A-65-3 cyl & pist on this site and for some reason your message then disappeared off the message board . You asked what size -8 cyl & pist I was looking for and I replied
" as close to std as possible with having to get into a major rework and rechroming to get a useable set " . Then , no reply and your message was gone ? Let me know what you have if you're still interested , Gene

Shorty,
I think he meant the PM option. It just keeps the clutter from the board.
