Sure hope someone can get this large 4 cylinder Doman marine engine located in Linwood Michigan. I believe it can be purchased at a real reasonable price. It may eventually go to the scrap yard if no one gets it. If someone is interested click on my name and email me and I will get you in touch with the gentleman that owns it.

Sorry Bob, It's all about respect. Something my Mom & Dad taught me at a early age. As I have gotten older I started calling people by the first name but every once in a while the respect and teachings just come out automatically. If I hear anything on the Doman marine engine I will let you know. Please do the same for me as I would like to know that it got a good home. |

I emailed the owner of the Doman 4 cylinder and ask if anyone had picked it up. He said the he still has the engine and it is available if someone wants it. I was hoping it might be on its way to Cool Springs but I'm not sure what happened with the deal. |

I'm amazed someone hasn't snapped that up. You guys are spoiled for fresh water cooled engines obviously! Atwater Kent Type H ignition by the look of it. Looks like there would have been a large force feed lubricator driven off that bronze pulley on the end of the camshaft. |
