Hi,
This is from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Atomic_4 The Atomic 4 is descended from an earlier Universal Motor Company design called the Utility Four, which was used extensively in World War II by the United States Navy and allies to power the lifeboats for the ships, barges, and tankers of many navies and merchant marine fleets. The Utility Four was replaced by the Atomic 4 in 1947. - Paul E. 1979 C&C 29 Mk1 S/V Johanna Rose Carrabelle, FL On May 17, 2013, at 8:33 AM, cnc-list-requ...@cnc-list.com wrote: > Date: Fri, 17 May 2013 09:23:05 -0300 > From: "Hoyt, Mike" <mike.h...@impgroup.com> > To: <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> > Subject: Re: Stus-List Marine vs Automotive parts > Message-ID: > <4cdebb6b0f16c541ba8f985b72705d5416021...@hfxexc02.impgroup.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" > > I once heard a story that the Atomic 4 was the power plant in the WW II > landing craft.
