From what I read here converting the glow over to diesel is a big power boost. What about converting a Thunder Tigre 60 over to diesel for the Model Tech P-47? Anyone tried this or do they even make a conversion for this engine?

Lets make a stink so that Bob Davis @ DDD will make a head for the Thunder Tiger GP60. It's almost identical HP to the PRO BB version for only $84.00. It has a smaller carb and mild timing making it ideal for diesel conversion. If we don't ask Davis won't do it. Davis has a head for an OS FX61 but in the recent MAN engine test it was only minimally more powerful that the TT GP60 for almost DOUBLE the $$$. Mr. Davis make a TT GP 60 head!
