The report summarizes the DDA activities for the effort performed on the procurement and delivery of eleven Allison GT 404-4 gas turbine engines and five HT740CT and six V730CT Allison automatic transmissions and the required associated software. The contract requires the delivery of the engines and transmissions for the Greyhound and Transit Coaches, respectively. In addition, software items such as cost reports, technical reports, installation drawings, acceptance test data and parts lists are required. A recent decision by the DOE will modify the build configuration for the last four (4) Transit Coach engines. It was decided by the DOE at a meeting in Washington, DC on March 28, 1979 with representatives from DDA, NASA/LeRC, JPL and Booz-Allen and Hamilton that these engines are to be built with ceramic regenerators.
