Re: Jet Snowmobile Project/Team

Re: Jet Snowmobile Project/Team
Hi Luc Nice kart I have to admit ... Roger that for the correction ... The reasonS why I want to use roller bearings rather than journal bearing brass bushing is because; 1) They are more tolerant to vibrations, especially when you're 300 kl/h on a "Bumpy" frozen lake, and 2) I have developped a clu...

Re: need help,can anyone identify this engine?

Nice day,
Lockwood engine would give you that kind of thrust, although I'm not certain about the "200" lbs. If not, maybe consider a "Scaled Down" Argus.ide really like to go for 100 to 200 lbs,valved or valveless,any suggestions?
Nice day,

Re: Ill pay for you to build me a pulsejet

Not that it was for sale, but since I'm not using it and don't I will either, why keep it collecting dust. Here a picture, fully built, ...
