Im trying to locate some parts for my 1916 H3 Hispano Suiza aero engine. In particular a carburettor and manifolds.
I have a carb body with some internals and a manifold that bolts to a block so far.
If I could find some decent drawings of the Stromberg carb, I might be able to make the missing bits.
Can anyone help?

Hispano
I shall look out for another engine for you, they made 47,000 so there’s a small chance you would think!
Can’t wait to get this one running.

Wow thats what I want!
Wow,
I’ve been looking for one of those to go with my bits of Sopwith Dolphin.
I don’t know what you intend to do with the engine, I couldn’t afford to buy it, but if you fancy collaborating I have these!
I have front and top cowlings, propeller and an oil pressure gauge.
Does your engine have the reduction gear on it? Or is it direct drive.
I hope your not going to put it in a car!
If we got together, we have the makings of an aeroplane!
