A true combination outboard with a Evinrude 20 or 25HP powerhead on KG7 tower and a Wizard gearfoot. The powerhead has no numbers and at antique outboard meets I took it to the OMC guys could never agree if it was a 20 or 25HP. The Wizard gearfoot is off the Wizard version of the KE7 but has a slightly longer drive shaft and fits the adapter better then the KG7 gearfoot that came with the motor when I bought it. The driveshaft has no splines and is drilled for a middle or rear cotter pin but is 5/8 inches so I used D props with a nylon sleeve and the motor comes with one propeller. With the 21/16 and OMC powerhead it has great acceleration and the drag from the non racing gearfoot only seems to lose about 3 or 4 MPH but doesn't need to be greased with a special tool. I used the same power head on a 1:1 racing lower unit for a while. I used it mostly on a picklefork hydroplane that I bought in the 80s and raced it and used it with many racing motors and it this motor seemed to be similar to a Yamato 80 in acceleration but not quite the top speed. Right now the it has a homemade ignition advance that my dad made when he used it last on a Step Hydroplane he made. I had it with ignition locked fully advanced but is easier to start with the adjustable timing. I can ship it and would take the powerhead off and send it in 2 boxes and am going to Maine in October and can delivery it on the way.

Nissan Ellure concept (2010) unveiled

Thu, 18 Nov 2010

The Nissan Ellure has today made its world debut at the 2010 LA auto show. Nissan's senior vice president and chief creative officer, Shiro Nakamura states that 'it's not intended as a preview of any upcoming production model' and that 'the Ellure confirms Nissan’s intention to be a strong player in the sedan segment for many years to come' An interesting u-turn, as Nissan has steadfastly pioneered niche markets over the last decade, whilst turning their back on the traditional sectors. Well, the drivetrain's worth a mention: the Ellure boasts a supercharged 2.5-litre four-cylinder with Intelligent Dual Clutch Control (one motor/two clutch design with lithium-ion battery) and 25 kW electric motor.
