Does anyone know where an Allison V-1710 engine can be obtained these days ? (Besides the example currently on Barnstormers)
Need any leads or contacts !

Also, does anyone know the asking price for a New Old Stock Allison (not overhauled)
I have been told that Restores wont pay more than a few thousand for a engine, due to the cost of overhauling !

Check out orchards in the Yakima Wa area. They used allisons for wind machines. I have been told and saw a picture or two in the past.
