The three big “V” boats, Argonaut,Nautilus and Narwhal had MAN engines. &#091;3 boats, 12 engines&#093; Maschinenfabrik-Augsburg-Nürnberg (MAN) was a German company thusreplacement parts would be difficult to obtain.  Cachalotalso had MAN engines. &#091;2 boats, 4 engines&#093;  Cuttlefish had NELSECOengines (New London Ship and Engine Company) which were no longerbeing manufactured. &#091;1 boat, 2 engines&#093;  There were Winton 201engines in Porpoise (SS-172) through Permit (SS-178) &#091;7 boats, 28engines&#093;.  There were 80 HOR engines in scattered through the Perch,Sargo, Salmon, Seadragon, Tambor, Gar, and Gato Classes from Pompano(SS-181) through Pargo (SS-264) &#091;20 boats, 80 engines&#093;.  This gave atotal of 33 boats with 126 engines that needed engines replaced. Note that Cachalot and Cuttlefish had two engines each withthe rest having four engines each. Dolphin was a special case in that she was a fleet type with the same engine/generator configuration as Argonaut, Nautilus, and Narwhal (Alden).&nbsp; It was decided at some point that Dolphin would not be re-engined.&nbsp; <br></div>]]>
