By Rick Pewe

Restore and rebuild your Jeep 134-ci 4-cylinder Go Devil and Hurricane engine with help from the foremost expert in the industry!

The famous Willys Go Devil flathead engine was developed in the 1920s, saved a car company in the 1930s, and helped win a war in the 1940s. Along with its cousin, the Hurricane F-head engine that was introduced in the 1950s, these Willys engines survived three wars and five automotive companies while soldiering on into the 1970s, when production ceased. With more than four decades of production in cars, trucks, Jeeps, and a multitude of industrial and stationary applications, hundreds of thousands of these venerable engines were produced around the globe. With most of these engines going into Jeep-brand vehicles, it gave rise to the famous phrase "the sun never sets on the mighty Jeep." A favorite of military restorers and backyard mechanics, these engines are a great project to rebuild at home. Recent advances in technology gave a new life to tired engines needing to be rebuilt.
