The guys that are developing V-8's have a problem.
They either need to cam for low RPM direct drive or use a PSRU. The Eagle 540
has a gorgeous PSRU that will handle 1,000 HP that potentially could be a
bolt-on for other V-8's. It's compact and light. It has helical-cut gears with
3.4 tooth engagement, a huge benefit over spur gears. Those gears have a special
hollow body for lightness. All bearings were designed by the Timken helicopter
guys. It also is set up for a prop governor and has a standard prop flange. It
uses its own oil (Shell Donax TC-50) and has its own filter and
pump.
