Does anybody have specs on the following 1920/1930 vintage Wintons: 114-6 and 138-8. I am particularly interested in the weight of these engines. I am doing research for an upcoming book. these engines were installed in early 125 foot Coast Guard cutters. Thanks! |

Goodday Bryan I think Winton was a division of General Motors--maybe their archives can help--Good Luck Larry Healey |

Russell, google "fleet submarines of WW2" for full story of 8-268 G M engines. The 3-268 was used as a generator power unit in LST and LSM amphibs. 71 series came in 1938 well before 268 series.GRAY MARINE was just a conversion on 71 series. |

Larry, the 6-110 was built about 1949 - 59 and was about 350 hp. mainly used in earth moving machines (EUCLID) and some in marine in tandem and quad installations. the quad gave a shaft output about 1500 hp. |
