Engine jet
Where Can I get a Turbofan Jet Engine?
I would like to know here I can find and purchase a turbofan jet engine, can anyone help?
I was looking for an engine that is medium small, about the size of a human laying down. Perhpas an old Lear engine.
Your question is pretty vague. Do you want a brand new one? How big (powerful) an engine do you want? How complete does it need to be; that is, do you need to include control, electrical, and bleed air systems?
If you want a brand new one, you will need the advice of the sales department of the manufacturer. Just look them up on the Internet. If you want a salvage engine, look up "aircraft salvage." Remember that even a junk turbofan will sell for many thousands of dollars.
Good luck.

How do I become a non-military jet engine mechanic?
I am a high schooler enrolled in an auto mechanics class right now training me to become ASE certified. I do not want to become a automechanic because there is no retirement and the pay isn't very nice. But, I'm very interested in it all. I heard about becoming a jet-engine mechanic for the airforce. I would not like to enlist in the military though. Does anyone know about commercial airlines and their mechanics or is one themselves?
If you think you want to become an A&P go to the FAA website section on becoming a mechanic at http://www.faa.gov/mechanics/become/. There you can find out about schools and requirements. Don't believe what the private schools tell you about placement rates and salary, they are all lies. The best schools are public community colleges.
The military would not be the best option to pursue this career. Jet mechanics come out of the Air Force and wind up going to A&P schools, just as you could do right out of high school, to get their Airframe and Powerplant licenses. When they finish all of that they are almost 25 and looking for a job.
Don't be so quick to assume that the working conditions and benefits are so much better as a powerplant mechanic. Most of the jet mechanics I have known loathed working for the airlines. Jet mechanics in an airline engine shop usually do only one part of a teardown or inspection and feel like they are working on an assembly line, repetitive, boaring and thoughtless work.
Good luck with your decision but an auto mechanic actually has more job opportunities, and by the way almost nobody offers retirement anymore that is the purpose of 401Ks.

You made some good points there. I did a search on the topic and found most people will agree with your blog.
When you install a more free flowing exhaust your engine will breath better and run leaner. That means it will take in more air. A lean mixture runs hotter. Jetting means installing richer jets in the carb to bring the air fuel mixture back to the proper ratio. The jets are little tubes that pass fuel up from the float bowl.
