Hello, I have for sale severals Engines Turbomeca Turmo III E6, those engines were overhauled by the manufacturer and are since stored inside a container, they are available with all the accessories + associated documentation. Please advise if any interest. JC Calabuig
Hi, How much are you looking for for these units? You should not post things for sale here without including this info. Not sure how much interest there will be on this site for those but as I have good contacts in the aviation business if they are what you say they are there should be some interest. Ca you PM me the Serial Numbers?
It appears they also have a marine version as well ? GE Marine The LM1600 marine gas turbine is a simple-cycle, two-shaft, high- performance engine. Derived from GE’s F404 aircraft engine, the LM1600 is comprised of a gas generator, a power turbine, attached fuel and lube oil pumps, a fuel control and speed governing system, associated inlet and exhaust sections, lube and scavenge systems and control—as well as devices for starting and monitoring the engine operation. The LM1600 has four major components: a 10-stage, 22:1 pressure ratio compressor with two stages of variable stator vanes; a fully annular combustor with externally mounted fuel nozzles; a two-stage, air-cooled turbine; and a two-stage aerodynamically coupled low-pressure power turbine which is driven by the gas generator’s high energy exhaust gas flow. The LM1600 marine gas turbine is frequently housed in a highly shock- resistant, thermal acoustic enclosure and mounting base. The enclosure attenuates noise in the engine room and provides sensors for inlet-icing and fire detection. It also houses fire extinguishing equipment. Various GE Marine System Suppliers of the LM1600 have designed modules for housing the engines they package. These modules are usually pre-wired and factory-tested for easy installation. The weight and dimensions of these modules vary depending on the packager’s design. The typical weight is 24,000 Ibs (10,909 kg), and typical dimensions are 22.3 ft long x 7.9 ft wide x 9.3 ft high (6.8 m long x 2.4 m wide x 2.8 m high). The inlet duct flow area is 20.5 square feet (1.9 sq m) and the exhaust duct flow area is 31.0 square feet (2.88 sq m). The simple modular design of the LM1600 incorporates many features to maximize shipboard maintainability and parts replacement downtime, such as a split compressor casing, in-place blade and vane replacement, in-place hot section maintenance and accessible external fuel nozzles.

Hi, I am curious as to what a pst about the very well known LM 2500 Group of GT's has to do with a pair of old Lynx GT's for sale by another member. There is a yacht with a couple of the top end 2500's in it featured right here on YF.

???? Sure didn't read like a question, it looked just like a GE Land and Marine engine offered up as a "version" of the advertised engine. Just because the GE engine has a 1600 in the model number doesn't mean it is made by "they" which in the context of this thread means Turbomeca, the French company that built the Turmo engine the rest of us including the OP are talking about. They (Turbomeca) build low power turbines for light aircraft and helicopters, "they" don't "also have a marine version" called a GE LM1600. General Electric does though. Those engine can be used in boats but it's more a gimmick than a practical powerplant.
