Lucero's book stated that Lockhart's "McDowell Special" had a SR Fronty with a overhead cam. That would have been years before the Factory Fronty single stick came around....Here is my SR Fronty with a McDowell overhead cam attachment, using shaft and bevel gear drive with Wills St. Claire gears. Anyone know of any other McDowell equipment for Model T's ?
