Inherited this with some antique car and truck stuff, and would like to find out more about it. Like does it look complete, and who was it manufactured by? Any help is greatly appreciated. Here is a link to my photobucket with all the pictures I have. If you need a more specific shot just ask.

Looks like a Rochester from Rochester New York
Use the search function at the top and search for Rochester there are quite a few pics
Hope this helps

That piston stuck in the cylinder upside down through me for a loop there for about a minute. I finally landed back on the ground and think I got her figured out now. I do not know who manufactured the engine. Sorry. |

Are the other two connecting rods on the pistons inside the cylinders? If not then your missing two con-rods and carb. Looks like the water manifold is built into the exhaust manifold. Correct me if I'm wrong but it appears that the exhaust manifold and the intake manifold are on the same side of the cylinder. Probably need a few buzz coils for the ignition. You may be missing some parts for your clutch. I do not see the clutch lever and mechanism. |

Thanks for the help with the pictures Ernie. I'm not sure I'll ever get around to this project. I have not pulled them out, but I believe that the rods ore on the pistons, and it was put like this for shipping. |

I think I have another box of parts some where with that handle and maybe some other bits. I'll have to dig around and get back to you. |

I found some more parts. I have the flywheel and a long handle and mounting bracket. I have put the pics in my photobucket at the original link. I also laid out the parts that where in the small box. I did not find a carb though. |

Here are the additional pics from Chris. The handle is for the reverse gear.

Hello
I have a marine engine 6354, 6 cylinders, aspirated, the serial number is not clear. I don´t know if you can help me, but I need to know where to find it? It was rebuilt in Turkey, in the 80's, but the builder is not able to help me with the number and I need it to obtain the EU certificate. Please help!! |
