Guys , Do we know what the Continental R-985 Radial engine powered ? many thanks Jerry

Actually, I thought is was a variant of the Continental R-975 Whirlwind that powered the M4 and M4A1 Sherman, the Priest, the Hellcat, the Grant and a few others wasn't it? Is this a 985 or a 975 engine from tank Workshop? reference here: http://web.inter.nl.net/users/spoelstra/g104/1cacr/m7_06.html and here: http://www.panzerscale.de/tipps_und_tricks/motorpics/motorpics.htm (in bottom row of pics) and here: http://www.172shermans.com/introduction.htm and here (I'll stop now...): http://www.automobilemag.com/reviews/suvs/0502_buick_hellcat/tank_review.html I don't think there is a Continental R-985 but there is a Pratt & Whitney R-985 also known as the 'Wasp Junior' and was and aero engine only I think..... I any event, they look like nice castings from Tank Workshop and will enhance details. This is all probably just a typo methinks... Bob

And it is a "Muzzle Brake", as in stopping device, and not "Break", as in broken.

Great news on the early style commanders coupler for the M48A3
