 Yup, Whole picture this time.
How Odd, This is the first time that I remember ever seeing an engine with a crankcase side-plate cover. Sure makes for easy access to to work on the bottom end.

Bear,
You goingt to have that thing running by the time I get there  . Will send you an email with travel plans. Looks like it is good and clean inside. I got one of them projects to do to but I will have to do mine out side. Think I'll wait till after I get back home to do mine.

That is one STRANGE engine. Any other shots of it? Seems like the cylinders are angled to the right side, is there a removable head on that side? Valve placement strange also. You doing a rebuild on it? I would LOVE to see that baby torn apart.

Looks like you have engines out of more than one project! You have quite a bit of room to work. Let us know how it turns out!

Definitely not an L Head, but an interesting looking engine.

Adjusting the valves on that engine looks to be an interesting task. Is is very difficult? I like how just about everything is accessible from the side.

adjusting the valves is about the same as other engines except your working from the side
