Gary Pruss at G&M models sell nelsons, 630 279 2451, or I have a good used one for sale , gene at 253 854 1025. gene gager
 
GENE , HE MAY NOT BE TALKING ABOUT THE MOTOR THAT GARY SELLS , THAT IS A AIRPLANE MOTOR CONVERSION , HE MAY BE IN REFERANCE TO NELSON OUT OF MIN. MN. WE WILL NOT HAVE THE MOTOR READY FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS .
 
Nelsons engines Inboard and the outboard are not airplane motor conversions. They are two different motors, by Henry Nelson. Marine engines not conversions. You should get your facts straight. :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

I'm also for registered members only allowed to post.

Here is the scoop

There is a Nelson motor (plane motor converted made by a guy neamed Nelson)

and a guy by the name of Nelson that makes a motor (prototyping a motor) called the Vision Tech 45.

Im quite sure Jim that the motor that is asked about in the post is a Nelson and not a Vision Tech..

jeepers, I thought I bought a boat motor from gary, an airplane motor? darn , I always wondered why it was in flight more than on plane. I'll have to talk to that guy. thanks,, gene gager
 
Mike,

The Nelson marine motors made by Henry Nelson are not converted airplane motors, they were designed as boat motors from the start, both the inboard and the outboard, the cranks and the crankcase are of a different design made specifically for marine use.

The other Nelson in MN is working on a prototype Vision Tech 45, that motor was designed in a University lab (engineering class I think) and decided to put it in the market. There was a paper posted somewhere a couple of years ago about the work on the motor, and to complicate things, of course, the guys name is also Nelson.

Gene,

You're right about that those motors can fly, seeing as Henrys' airplane motors hold bunch of airplane world speed records, I can see how they can make a boat fly also, now if I can keep my Leecraft from thinking it's an airplane, I might get me a couple of thropies.

GESH , TALK ABOUT TEMPERMENTAL . SORRY ABOUT THE MISTAKE , HENRY AND I HAVE TALKED ABOUT THIS MANY TIMES AND I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT IT WAS HIS AIRPLANE MOTOR HE HAD CONVERTED TO A MARINE , SORY ABOUT THAT II WILL TRY TO NOT MAKE A MISTAKE AGAIN ?? DAM , I WAS THINKING THAT NO ONE WAS PERFECT , ESPECIALY ME ,
 
Irwin,,, my post was ment only in fun, as I to thought it was a converted plane motor. my first nelson o/b came with an adapter for the k&b pto.. my second came with its own pto to bolt to the k&b foot. keep posting. gene gager
 
I have seen a Nelson 45 Pylon Racing engine and it looks like the outboard engine - EXCEPT it is a side port exhaust case. There are internal differences for a marine motor - especially the OB.

Gene,

That's how I took your post.

Jim,

I hope you didn't take my comments as an attack. My comment was meant to be as ,what can I say, don't call a keetle yellow if its black. I run the Nelsons along with the Macks, just got tired of Oh that's an airplane motor converted, to me that sounds the same as taking the car motors and turning them into boat motors, which is not true for the Nelsons. My comments were ment to clear that way of thinking. For what it's worth.

BILL. I WAS PULLING YOUR LEG, I KNOW YOU MENT WELL . NO OFFENCE TAKEN , WE GOT TO LIVEN UP THE GUYS EVERY NOW AND THEN , DID YOU SEE HOW MANY HITS WE GOT ON THAT ONE ,?? HE HE
 
the used nelson is sold, I rebought it today while testing when the crank broke. this will be 2 cranks and 3 rods on the same set of ceramic beargings and same piston and linner, poor motor has a million miles on it. took it off the pond and said it blew another rod , JD twisted the flywheel and said the crank broke. just when you thought the ol'l fa^* was done he got it right. think I'll try an pylon crank this time. gwg
 
As i am sure you are aware excuse me and many outher,s

Jim {MR Irwin}

assisted me and many outher,s in as many ways you could ever ask in education of many classes and

I can without any question that if MR IRWIN said the water was purple and every one else said it was red , I would sudgest that everyone else should go out and get there eye,s checked ,

Thank You {MR IRWIN] for 16 year,s of help and freindship

May GOD ALWAYS BE AT YOUR SIDE AND THE SUN IN YOUR FACE

When you run a Henry Nelson outboard .45 correctly they are awesome. Very hard to keep any hull on the water. Outstanding engines and very fast.
