Indeed, I thought that perhaps the guys with S130 might be interested in such an engine, albeit I not sure how it would be to run an origional engine ie spares etc,  the British MGB 81 dose run modern MAN units, as opposed to the origional petrol units for obvious reasons. I know not a view held by every one, but I personally would like to see the S130 going again, along with an effort to secure our existing craft, any help to Medusa of course in the current crisis, plus MTB 102, and looking ahead to the few remaining craft such as the houseboats at Shoreham and others.

This is a shot of an MB 501 - the engine that powered most of the E-boats. (note the Mercedes logo at the end) These were reckoned to develop 2500hp while the MB 518 developed 3000hp (powering the few 700 series S-Boats to 43+knts)

On second thoughts it cant be a 501 then. I have lots of pics just having troulble compressing them to upload. But the exhausts etc on mine are the same as the mb 518, and the square box on top of the engine too.
