Strange diesel engine:

German Jumo 205 engine was a supercharged two-stroke diesel with opposing pistons. It was about 1000ci and 860hp, which was not bad back in the 1930's. It was used for aircraft.

No head gaskets, no valves, two crankshafts, 4 injectors per cyl that were driven by a cam. The exhaust port was on the top of the cylinder, and the intake port was on the bottom. By staggering the cranks 11 deg to reduce the time both ports are open, they created a very efficient two-stroke.

That is some impressive HP for back then...hell even now.

N/A with less than 20PSI it was the most of it's day for diesels, and would put to shame what we have today, with a little twiking.

My Grand-Pa worked by Junkers from the 30's to 44 in Dessau Germany... He was an Airplane Engineer and he was the inventor of the for the ejection seat ...

fairbanks mores still use the opposed piston 2cycle diesels as genset on the ships in the navy.

Very impressive, so I would assume the engine would be pretty Rev happy for it's size then.

Yup those are cool! If you want real wierd, look up info and video of Deltic engines, doxford engines, double acting 2 strokes, Napier Sabre, Rolls Royce Vulture, theres a lot of odd stuff out there, most is pretty old now. I Love info on stuff like this!

I like how the rods have 4 connecting bolts with castle nuts and cotter pins.....

Cool. That also explains a lot about you and your intelligence. Smarts are in the genes.
