Been looking for info, You Tube, etc re. a Palmer marine conversion on a 1934 4cyl engine. I have all the components ready to go but I'm looking for someone who has seen on. Anyone been there, done that?
Thanks.

I've got a marine installation/conversion kit for a Ford four (I thought it was for an A though because of the lower bellhousing). But I can't help with any assembled pictures or video. Interested in seeing what other Barners can find though.

Try 'Old Marine Engine', SmokStak and some of the other stationary engine sites.
Most have a marine section.

I thought my conversion was for an A as well but the main bearing size is larger and the cast iron pan has the lower half of the clutch/bell housing as part of it. I was fortunte enough to find and purchase a '34 B engine with counter balanced crank.
I will try to get some photos.
