FS: Turbo based jet engine
Started this project over a year ago and I can't see I will have the time to get it finished 
It is based around a BIG turbo as used for silly powered supras etc. Turbo cost me over £200 
I have put together the combustor, frame and started gathering together the parts required to finish it.
This includes various pumps for fuel and oil, oil cooler, oil filters, fibre optic RPM sensor, oil tank, blower fan to start engine. etc etc
Obvious stuff missing is an injector nozzle (oil burner type) and the pipework required to connect the various components together. Not an enormous
amount of work to be fair but some trial and error required to get things right.
Was designed to run off atomised diesel as a gas producer to drive a free power turbine. I was hoping to be able to produce around 7s.h.p to drive an
alternator or something.
If anyone is genuinely interested I can provide more pictures and list of everything included.
