The engine was our first target for restoration. It is not the original engine, it’s an L-134 “Go Devil.” It was in good running order so we will use it for the first build, then the plan is to swap it our for an F-134 “Hurricane.” engine. The period correct engine. The only thing we will need to do to the L-134 is fix two broken manifold studs, one on the exhaust manifold and one on the block and add a mechanical fuel pump. The yellow paint was removed in preparation for painting the engine in beautiful Military Marine Forest Green. Note: Later in Phase III we chose to replace the electircal components, add a mechanical fuel pump, and rebuild the carb.
