Not fun... Arnie Loyning has died

Postby oldeskewltoy » Sun Apr 06, 2025 1:43 pm

Arnie passed away April 4th 2025.... a sad day. He and his crew at Loynings Engine Service built some of the most powerful "A" series engines in existence.

Just posting to pay my respects. I'm sure a lot of knowledge around the A series engines we still use today came from building engines at that shop.

What's the story behind the engine in that picture?
