THE JEEP® STORY AN EPIC ENGINE AN EPIC ENGINE ▲ A Willys L134 “Go Devil” engine The success of the famous “Go Devil” in the engine compartment of a 1942 Willys MB Jeep . engine had its origins in the 1920s. ® o a large extent, the success the Willys- Using the “Go Devil” on the Willys Quad Overland prototypes had over their prototype (and subsequently on the Jeep® MA T rivals from Bantam and Ford was down and MB) was something of a gamble for the to the superiority of their engine, the “Go Willys-Overland technical team (led by Delmar Devil”. Its cubic capacity (134.2 cu in, 2.2 l) was “Barney” Roos). The greater cubic capacity slightly larger than that of its rivals (122 cu in, offered better performance (25% more power 2 l), but it wasn’t sufficiently superior to and almost 50% more torque), but the engine account for the substantial difference in weighed significantly more than its rivals. This performance, or even the power output, forced the team to increase the dimensions of which turned out to be the deciding factor the vehicle’s entire structure. The result was for the Willys-Overland prototype during that the Willys Quad prototype which was the trials. presented for comparative testing at Holabird 1 THE JEEP® STORY AN EPIC ENGINE was decidedly overweight in comparison with Quad’s excess weight was compensated for its two competitors. The Willys-Overland by extra power (60 bhp at 4,000 rpm) and technicians, much like those from Bantam and greater engine torque (105 lb/ft at 2,000 rpm) Ford, were convinced with respect to both that the 1,300 lb (590 kg) Bantam’s Continental limit set by the army for The Willys Quad, with BY4112 (112 cu in, 45 bhp the new vehicle’s unladen its 2,450 lb (1,111 kg), at 3,500 rpm and 86 lb/ft weight wasn’t technically at 1,800 rpm) and the realistic.

The of the “Go Devil” and its engine torque that enabled the Jeep® prototype to shine: this engine’s secret was actually its fine tuning. In other words, the balance it achieved between its power output and its operational regularity and smoothness. Indeed, the “Go Devil” wasn’t more technically advanced than its competitors, especially since the original design dated back to the mid-1920s, and it was a long-stroke engine that had a timing system with side valves. More precisely, the original engine was also the first example of downsizing, because the Willys-Overland vehicle it was originally used in, the 1926 Whippet, was developed to compete with Ford’s Model T, which was extremely popular at the time. ◀ A US Army mechanic works on the engine of a Willys MB. 2 THE JEEP® STORY AN EPIC ENGINE Indeed, this vehicle was a veritable “Go Devil”. It was a “European” style four- institution, despite being somewhat cylinder engine, with a cubic capacity of just outdated, and it was available at a very 134.2 cu in (2.2 l) but capable of generating competitive price.

The engine At the end of the 1930s, the Whippet developed by the car manufacturer for the engine, which had undergone a series of Whippet series was the precursor to the modifications, was still being used on the The various auxiliary parts of the Willys MB Jeep® engine were the same as those installed upon request for the Ordnance Department, including on the larger trucks. 3 THE JEEP® STORY AN EPIC ENGINE ▶ The qualities of the “Go Devil” were often highlighted in wartime ads. Model 77, a line of compact cars produced by Willys-Overland. However, it was starting to show its age compared to some of its competitors – in particular, its performance levels were no longer meeting the standards expected for the time. It is also worth adding that the needs of American drivers had changed, and the reliability of the Willys-Overland engine – deemed to be excellent by mid- 1920s’ standards – was starting to develop problems when running at high speed for extended periods. By the end of the 1930s, engine reliability had become especially important in light of the improvements to the US road network. seizing, seizures which, if the engine was kept And so it was that, in 1939, before being at maximum power for any longer, could used on the Willys Model 39 sedan, Roos gave result in the plain bearings melting.

Roos had carried out the initial modifications Not only was the power increased from 45 to – which included redesigning the lubrication 60 bhp and the engine torque increased to system, installing new and more efficient plain 105 lb/ft but, above all, its reliability was also bearings, and adding aluminum alloy pistons improved. The original engine could generate rather than steel ones – the engine’s power a maximum power of 45 bhp at 3,400 rpm for increased to 49 bhp at 3,600 rpm.

    “Kaiser Flyer # 5” Joseph W. (Jeeps) Frazer Joseph W. Frazer was the automobile “expert” part of the Kaiser-Frazer Corporation. He was respected by the Detroit “in” crowd and was well-known as an outstanding automotive expert and salesman. He was born in Nashville, Tenn in 1892 into a well-to-do family. His brother operated a Packard Agency in Nashville and young Joe would doodle with drawing pictures of cars during his school days. He could have started his working career at various high- salary jobs in an executive position in other industries but chose instead to begin work at Packard as a mechanic’s helper at less than 20 cents per hour. He wanted to be close to his love - Joseph W. Frazer in his Willow Run Office early 1946 automobiles. Although he was very successful in several aspects of the automobile business, including starting the first technical school for automotive mechanics, his heart was always in sales and promotion. He sold Packard motor cars in New York and at his brother’s Nashville dealership and by the end of World War I he was ready to begin his quest for making his mark on the automobile industry. He first took an opportunity at GM’s Chevrolet Division in sales. He was soon promoted into the GM Export Division as Treasurer and helped to organize the General Motors Acceptance Division, one of the first strictly automobile credit agencies established in the country. GM later loaned Joe to Pierce-Arrow to assist them in creating their own credit agency.

  • 1953 Willys Cars Described
    1953 WILLYS CARS DESCRIBED GENERAL: Willys-Overland expanded the Aero line in 1953 but made only minor appearance changes from the 1952 models. They included red-painted wheel cover emblems and a gold-plated 'W' in the center of the grille, the latter symbolizing the firm's 50th anniversary. The Aero o-Wing nameplate was replaced with "Aero o-Falcon". Significantly, a new four-door sedan was developed for the Lark, Falcon and Ace lines. On April 29, 1953, Willys-Overland, Inc., was acquired by the Henry J. Kaiser Co. for approximately $60 million. The name of the company was then changed to Willys Motors, Inc. The new company, now a Toledo, Ohio based Kaiser-Willys Sales Corporation, then sold the Kaiser-Frazer plant at Willow Run, Michigan to General Motors. All production, including Kaisers and Frazers, was shifted to the Willys plant at Toledo. WILLYS LARK - The Lark Series was again the base trim level. It was identified by "Lark" on the trunk lid. It used the Lightning Six, L-head engine and had unadorned rubber windshield moldings around the two-piece windshield. WILLYS HEAVY DUTY - The Heavy Duty Aero was essentially a taxi cab version with components replaced with stronger pieces for fleet use. WILLYS FALCON - The Falcon was the intermediate trim level and was identified by the word "Falcon" on the trunk lid. The Falcon used the Hurricane Six F-head six-cylinder engine. It featured chrome windshield moldings around its two-piece windshield. WILLYS ACE - The Ace was the top trim level and included the words "Custom Ace" on the trunk lid.
