Welcome to the engine compartment 
A collection of files for engine modification so they fit 
for a Hovercraft and are USCG compatible
In this section we will show you engines we used and use on our craft's - the expenses of the engine as well as adaptations you need to make so they will fit for Hovercraft applications - please hold in mind that it might take quite long to some files together and the actual file is always directly related to a certain craft. Most of these files are our working files - so some will be updated as we challenge each problem of this engine type. Some are scripts we set up - and never finished ...yes also we have some stuff sitting in shop waiting to get finished - hope you enjoy and can find some useful information.
