Exhaust gas  driven turbosupercharger assemblies (figs. 1-1 and  1-2), one for each bank of cylinders, are mounted on  each side of the engine, at the rear. The tur-  bosuperchargers increase the pressure of the in-  take air thereby delivering a higher density air to  the cylinders as compared with a nonsupercharged  engine. This higher density air, with a proper fuel  flow, increases engine power.  b. Intctke Manifold Heater (g. 1-12).  (1) The intake manifold (figs. 1-1 and 1-2),  which distributes induction air to each bank of  cylinders, is equipped  th an electlically operated  flame type intake manifold heater. The heater is  provided as an aid for cold weather starting and  cold weather operations. Operation of the heater  switch (in the vehicle operator's compartment)  energizes the manifold heater fuel solenoid valve  '  the heater ignition unit, and spark plug for each  heater simultaneously. Fuel is hand pumped  through the manifold heater fuel filter and fuel  solenoid valve and sprayed into the intake man-  ifold. The fuel is ignited by the spark plug and  burns in the intake manifold as the engine is  cranking, and the flame heats the incoming air.  This flame-heated air and the products of combus-  tion are fed directly into the cylinders \vith little  heat loss. This results in an immediate engine re-  spose, and assures complete combustion at low  engine rpm and at no-load operating conditions  with low ambient temperature.  (2) The manifold heater fuel inlet solenoid  valve prevents fuel pumped by the fuel pump as-  sembly from entering the air intake manifold hea-  ter unless the heater system is energized. A man-  ifold heater fuel return check valve and solenoid  valve are located at the rear of the engine. The  solenoid valve is also energized (opened) when the  ignition unit and heate1· spark plugs are energized  to permit excess fuel to be retued to the fuel  I  tanks. The main fuel backOow valve prevents back  now of the fuel when the purge pump in the  driver's compartment is actuated.  1-18. Exhaust System and Turbosuper-  charger  a. The exhaust system consists of four manifolds,  one for each group of three adjacent cylinders. The  two exhaust manifolds on each cylinder bank are  connected to the turbosupercharger on their re-  spective side of the engine.  b. Exhaust gases from each side of the engine  enter a turbosupercharger and are forced around a  turbine housing, radially inward, and through a  1-18 Change 3  nozzle ring toward the turbine wheel. The exhaust  gases drive the turbine wheel, which in turn drives  the compressor wheel since both wheels are on a  common shaft. Intake manifold air enters at the  center of the compressor wheel and flows radially  outward through a diffuser section into the com-  pressor housing. The air at increased velocity then  leaves through a tangential outlet on the outside of  the compressor housing and enters the intake  manifold.  c. The exhaust gases are expelled from the tur-  bosuper�lrnrgers into the vehicle exhaust system.  1-19. Cooling System  NOTE  The key numbers shown below n paren-  B  I heses r er to fig. 1-8.  a. Fans. The top of the engine is shrouded to  house two cooling fans (48 and 40) which draw cool  air from the underside of the engine, through the  cylinder fins, and discharge the hot air ve1·tica1ly  from the top shroud. The fans are attached to  adapters (39) and arc mounted on shafts which are  driven through a fan drive clutch assembly (38).  The rear fan clutch is dliven by the rear fan drive  shaft (34), fan drive bevel gearshaft (33), and fan  dl'i ven gearshaft (35). The front fan clutch is driven  by the front fan drive shaft (32) and another fan  driven gearshaft (35).  b. Fan Drive and Clutch (fig. 1-13). The fan clutch  is oil cooled. The fan clutch drive and driven disks  are loaded by the centrifugal action of clutch balls  and springs housed in the clutch assembly. The  balls and spl'ings are in the driven member and  apply upward force to the clutch disks. The clutch  oil enters the fan drive vertical shaft from the fan  drive housing through an annular groove in the  shaft. The oil flows thro.ugh a central hole in the  shaft to a distributor where it is dispersed to the  ball bearings and to the clutch disks. The oil moves  between the clutch disks by centrifugal action and  drains back through the fan drive housing into the  engine oil pan.  c. Engine a+d Transmission Oil Coolers (fig. 1-1).  All transmission and engine oil cooling is ac-  complished by exteal oil coolers. The oil coolers  are located on the sides of the engine above the  cylinders. Air is drawn through the oil coolers by  the cooling fans. A thermostatic control valve in  each oil cooler controls the temperature of the oil  from the cooler by permitting cold oil to bypass the  coolers. This valve also permits oil to bypass the  cooler in the event that the cooler becomes clogged.
