Hello everyone, can someone help with Churchill track and sprocket ? 

Heavy Cast Steel  had a pitch of 8.3125

Light Cast Steel  had a pitch of 7.96 inches.

there was some changes in sprocket to apply Light Cast Steel tracks with smaller pitch ? 

how much "teeth" sprocket have ?

i doubt , mainly because of the huge amount of data

Hello!

i often read about 850 bhp L60, but can't find any Mk with such bhp

and about any other Mk's

L60 №4 Mk4A - 650bhp(485kW) at 2100 rev/min by Chieftain Mk1-3 handbook

L60 №4 Mk7A - 720bhp(537kW) at 2250 rev/min by Chieftain Mk5 handbook

L60 №4 Mk7A - 695bhp(706DIN) at 2250 rev/min by Chieftain MBT Vehicle Mechanic Initial

why there is such a big difference for same engine ?

L60 №4 Mk11A- 720bhp(730DIN) at 2250 rev/min by Chieftain MBT Vehicle Mechanic Initial

L60 №4 Mk13A- 695bhp(706DIN) at 2250 rev/min by Chieftain MBT Vehicle Mechanic Initial

Chieftain Mk.10 used Mk.11A engine ?

Hi All,

i have pages from Chieftain Mk5 Handook, maybe someone have weight and gear speeds and turning radii for Mk10 ?

i have spare parts manual for Mk1-3, it have good pictures of all parts, but no dimensions, i know diameter of roadwhell is 813mm but other parts(marked with red lines on left sides) ? size of bolts ? hub etc

btw what the difference between left roadwhell without holes and right with holes ? later and earlier model or ?

i more interested in how gun actually look like and what was the aiming degree, horizontal and vertical

is there any photos or blueprints of hull-mounted 3-inch howitzer ? and info about aiming angles of 3-inch ?
