Complimenti... Per qualcosa di incredibile, o meglio quasi impossibile! Poche persone al mondo ne sono capaci 👏👏👏🥇

This man in an artist and genius!!

Ciao, gran bel lavoro, complimenti. mi deve arrivare un motore esattamente uguale da revisionare, nel caso dovessi ripristinare le bronzine, dove le hai trovate se anche tu le hai cambiate? grazie e complimenti ancora.

I wonder what percentage of the worlds R4360's does his shop rebuild?

Opera d'arte due volte!

Molto grazie!

My dad was a mechanic on these engines in the USAF from 1953-1957. His term in the service was at the tail end of the Korean war. He repaired, overhauled, and maintained these engines for the B-36 Peacemaker. Our family is very proud of him for this was (and still is) the most complex reciprocating piston engine ever produced. 4:22 Translation: The Pratt & Whitney R-4360 Wasp Major was the largest and most powerful aviation star engine ever mass-produced. This engine represented the pinnacle of the development of piston engine technology, or as they are called today alternative, before the advent of jet engines and turboprop engines drastically reduced their adoption in the civil and military aeronautical market.

A complexidade desse mostro aeronáutico me assombra

Too bad they didn’t have today’s more advanced lubricants to use.

😲👍 canada

Are those engines air cooled? Also why is a radial engine preferred over a V-Engine?

That would keep me in the shop. Nice work

Mind boggling jigsaw wow that's what you call a motor the ultimate engine

Where you get a gasket kit for one of those LOL

Fantastic! So much love is poured into restoration of a vintage engine.

You can tell this guy is a master. The amount of detail in all the assemblies, the way that the engine started and ran just shows that he is a genius at his craft. Fantastic video.

Speechless .

penso che smontarli sia relativamente facile, ma... a rimontarli come si fa? questi meccanici sono dei geni

Such a beautiful video presentation! The symphony music that accompanied the viewing reminded me of: a musical masterpiece coupled with an engineering masterpiece⚠️ I hold both of them dear to my heart🎼😍

Magnifica realizzazione!!! Ottima la cura del restauro e fantastico il video!!! Ma per caso lo avete anche messo in moto??? Se si.... quando lo fate il video???

When one is as passionate about these engines as this; would always have excellent results.i us to work on our R 2000 7M2s everyday...yea they leaked title oil but that brand does; a little TLC keeps all radials running smooth and very reliable all the time! And each one has a little different fuel burn...so what.all are like that,so careful flight planning will see you through. Don't forget to pulled through; or drain lower cylinders before every start...and they'll go on n on....

Beautiful. All of it.

DAMN! I thought I was doing well when I rebuilt an old BMW motorcycle engine by myself. Then there are ACTUALLY skilled people. I bow to your skill level Sir!

How did they ever fix those damn things? So complex

Nice to hear how reliable they were. I am amazed when I go to the local air museum in McMinnville Oregon and view the cut away 4360 wasp engine as it turns with an electric motor. It is a complex marvel of piston engine technology with its 28 cylinder wrap around design!

Pues que tipo de motor es ese y para que ? Avión ?

Had I not become paraplegia due to an accident 40 years ago , I had plans to build a drag race car using the P & W R-4360 , 28 cylinder engine . It would have been a great entertainment giz-moe and raised money for cancer treatments etc..

Designer: Which side do we put cylinders on? Engineer: How about all of them?

Amazing rebuild to an artistic approach!! BUENISSIMO!!!

It´s a great thing to preserve these Engine-Dinosours for future generations. Such engines will never been built. Music fits to the esthetic of these Engines. Thank you!

Beautiful work

Great

Simply amazing

I was just thinking how much of a pain it would be to assemble one of these engines! Amazing parts count!

The sound, oh that beautiful sound.

You have a job and a skill that every person that can fly, wishes for during a good nights dream!

These things were made without the help of cnc simply by hand and skill. Magnificent engineering.

That Major looks thirsty.

These engines were built way after this music came out ,

hi i need help settoing the cams up on mine the marks are not there

My first job in the Navy (Korean War) was to help change the spark plugs in a 4360. It was the perfict start for a for a new world. Never should have left.

Wonderful

The precision manual milling and manual lathe work to make those individual components is really interesting to think about.

Beautiful !

Auto stupenda!

se vendi qualche motore fammi sapere

Salve, vorrei parlarvi! Brando 3284854713

Salve chiedo di essere ricontattato, vorrei parlarvi. Brando, 3284854713

Spettacolare il motore ed il vostro lavoro. Conservo gelosamente le istruzioni per l'uso del motore 115.1 trovate tra gli oggetti di mio nonno. Erano presenti anche le prese per le mitragliarici opzionali. Attendo un video della accensione!

Great video! Great work! Thanks!
