Listen to the wonderful sound of this Continental R-975-C4 radial engine (9 cylinders, 15,9L, about 450hp).
Turn up your speakers!
Hear it cold starting and revving!
There is a lot of smoke when starting because of the configuration of the engine: as it is a radial engine, when not running, oil accumulates in the lower cylinder, hence the smoke when cold starting.
The featured tank is a Sherman M4A1E8 HVSS 76mm restored in Bastogne by the team of the War Heritage Institute.
It was seen during Tanks in Town 2017 in Ghlin, Belgium.
