  Straight-6 - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Straight-six engines were historically more common than V6's, mainly because the length of such engines was not such a concern in rear-drive vehicles but also because V6's (unlike the 90-degree V8) were somewhat difficult to make smooth-running.
The widespread use of front-wheel-drive and transverse ("east-west") engine configurations in smaller cars saw that the shorter engine length of the V6 became highly desirable, and these days most six-cylinder engines are made in the V configuration.
Engines of this type were popular before World War II in mid-range cars.

 Diesel engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Engine block heaters (electric resistive heaters in the engine block) plugged into the utility grid are often used when an engine is shut down for extended periods (more than an hour) in cold weather to reduce startup time and engine wear.
Diesel engines tend to have their torque peak quite low in their speed range (usually between 1600-2000 rpm for a small-capacity unit, lower for a larger engine used in a lorry or truck).
On large engines, pre-lubrication and slow turning of an engine, as well as heating, are required to minimize the amount of engine damage during initial start-up and running.

 REPLY BRIEF FOR THE PLAINTIFFS-APPELLANTS
GM was able to conceal from Evans its theft until the fall of 1991, when Evans was stunned to see the cover story in an automotive journal announcing the Corvette’s radical new cooling system, Tr.
GM was so proud of the “7/13/88” AVO, the hose device, and the cylinder, that Charles Veenstra, one of GM’s in-house attorneys supervising the litigation, called them his “case breakers” and joked about keeping them on display in a “glass case.” (Evans Tr.
The fact that GM had also put Juriga in charge of the specific engineering design that is at the heart of this case only reinforces the logic of attributing his sworn testimony and actions to GM.

 Atlas Model Railroad Co. Product Review
This new EMD standard-cab SD60 from Atlas is a nice model, and the good news for those using Digital Command Control (DCC) is that, following in the footsteps of the firm’s earlier GP40-2, Atlas is offering the model in Both conventional and Lenz DCC decoder-equipped versions.
The Atlas Model follows conventional N scale diesel locomotive construction, with an injection-molded styrene shell that fits over a split frame that surrounds a five-pole skew-wound motor.
Acetal plastic handrails and stanchions are molded in color to match the body, but the green on our BN sample doesn’t quite match the paint on the locomotive, and the handrails have a rather waxy appearance.

 The Escapist - The Young Person's Adventure League
Each roleplaying game in the Atlas is detailed with a series of criteria, followed by a few paragraphs that supply any extra information you may need to know.
Players roll 1d6 and add an appropriate skill score when they attempt something - the GM then rolls 1d6 and adds the skill score of their opponent, or a difficulty number if it's unopposed.
Rather than acting as a background engine to determine hits and damage, the rules in Truth and Justice reward good roleplaying, and generate story possiblities as the game is played.
