Re: Engine ID needed
Doesn’t look like a Model T Ford to me

Re: Engine ID needed
I see some new parts on it. Does it run? Definitely not Model T!

Re: Engine ID needed
Because of the location of the oil/water pump and no way to mount a fan it might have been for a boat (maybe). You might try asking over here;
https://www.smokstak.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=38 As it looks to have a pulley on the back, could have been a stationary engine running a belt line in a shop or ?

Re: Engine ID needed
My guess is it started out as an early MC or aircraft engine.
Definitely early, teens possibly, not Model T, or any other Ford I've ever seen. |

Re: Engine ID needed
Well how early of boats were these guys working with, I would say this motor is from the teens. Smokstak has a lot of different sections. One might be a better fit then others or try one of the national antique car clubs.

Re: Engine ID needed
31steve, which section in Smokstak? I would like to follow over there and see what they come up with.
I found it. There a bit more info if you got it from a guy named Tim https://www.smokstak.com/forum/showt...light=Rayfield There was a link to above in your posting over there.
