1943 Allison V-1710 Aircraft Engine | Machinery Over Time

Repost from @daveshuten The freaking shovel nose @sangerboatsinc has an Allison engine. 🤤 If you don’t know what an Allison is 👇👇 The Allison V-1710 was a 12-cylinder engine used in several aircraft during World War II, including the Curtiss P-40 Warhawk, the Bell P-39 Airacobra, and the Lockheed P-38 Lightning. In 1937, the Allison V-1710 became the first American engine to qualify at 1,000 horsepower. | Show Me Your Boat Hull

Twin Allison V12 power coming alive! 🔥 At Airshow Hahnweide 2025, Raimund Riedmann starts both engines of the legendary P-38 Lightning — and the sound is simply breathtaking. After the dramatic twin-engine start, he taxis out in a powerful demonstration, filling the airfield with pure WWII thunder. Turn up the volume and enjoy the magic of two roaring V12s!
