Adams Gentlemen: REPAIR AND UPGRADING OF_VERNON LIGHT AND POWER ENGINES We are enclo-sing a cost estimate. for thework to be ' -done on Engines #1 through #4. These are "not-to- exceed" figures based on the knowledge we acquired while working on the #5 Engine. There are much more machining.. and manufacturing costs on the remaining engines .since all the good spare parts were used on the #S .Engine. However, with the knowledge we acquired while repairing the #5 Engine, we should be .able to hold down. the labor costs. considerably on-.the remaining four. As mentioned-previously, these prices are not "firm" but on a "not-to-exceed" basis only.. However, by using the same.. supervision and millwright personnel who worked on -the #5 Engine., we feel the. job-could be done for as much as 25% under these figures. We will not be performing these services with a "hurry upand .get done .and out" attitude but plan tocomplete a -job of highest .quality.-and with the assurance of depend- ability .that is necessary to achieve the prime objective. There will be much work required in the building-..and modifying of the existing parts to bring these. engines to an excellent operating condition. This work will. replace the spare parts inventory which we depleted on .the first engine. I wish to assure you that we will`. keep. our time. records accurately-and .will .bill- honestly and fairly for all labor and parts according .to the attached :Wage and Rate.Schedule:. ~xh?b,} City of_ Vernon Department of Public Works ..June 17, 1983 Page -2-: However, we are looking at a new union contract to become .effective July 1, 1983.

Subject: Reconditioning No. 5 engine - scavenge air blower Dear Sir: A.study was prepared to determine-the best and most viable way of increasing: the scavenge air to the-engine. It was,. after considerable thought, recommended that the _ blower be fitted with a speed increaser so that the capacity of the blower would meet-the demands of the engine. This would mean that the blowez speed would increase from 3,550 to 3,900/4,000 r.p.m. Studies are x~o~na underway, not previously authorized, to investigate insta]_lation of.turbo charging. It must be~remem- bered that a 2-cycle engine will not start automatically on turbo charging but needs a separate source of scavenge air. - For this reason. scavenge air blowers would. have to.be provided for al the engines,-however if during the process we are able to develop sources for turbo charges subsequent engneswould not necessarily. be required to be fitted with speed increasers.

It's believed that -once the .engine is reconditioned the primary obstacle to opacity _is the fact there is insufficient scavenge air. We are investigating not on]_yrebuilding -th.e scavenge air blower but also .the. possibility of acquiring... second hand turbo chargers. The .latter t•:ould provide not only-much better fuel economy because.. it ~"JOUld eliminate the parasite po~ae_r 1-osses of the scavenge -.air bloc":er but would permit the engine to be operated a a higher capacity'thanthe present .rating.
