Matt Hutson and I are working on a project to document CB&Q 537.
One of the things I have wondered about for years is what kind of injectors the engine used. It's hard to see them well in pictures, and I was hoping someone on this list might be able to say, "oh yeah, those are ...."
They are both non-lifting injectors, and they don't even look like the same kind. If someone wants to take a whack at it and doesn't have any pictures of the engine, I can send you something.
We would like to get this right. Abouut 15 years ago, I built an On3 model of this engine. For injectors, I had to cobble up some parts from several miscellanious castings to get two somethings that looked right.
Thanks for the help.
Mike
