Design 3

Steam Engine Design #3

Under Construction!!

This is basically the same approach as design #2, but mechanically much more simple.

• For an internal camshaft engine, remove the "push rods".
• For an overhead valve engine, remove each camshaft ("V" engine has 2) and rocker arms.
• This leaves all engine valves permanently in the "closed" position.
• Using a metal drill, enlarge the spark plug holes and "tap" for 1/2 inch standard pipe threads.
• Repeat the mechanical design below for each cylinder (except for Distributor and Controller).
