I have two marine engines that are related to this unknown, one is a Detroit Engine Works and the other a Detroit Motor Car Supply Company engine sold as the Sandow. The castings are mostly but not totally interchangeable between the Detroit and Sandow. The casting numbers are even the same except one additional digit was added, i.e., the exhaust jacket on the Detroit is 5BC and it is 5BC1 on the Sandow. The water pumps are somewhat different. This unknown is pretty much a dead ringer for the Sandow right down to the style and size of the grease cups but it has the same water pump and base as the Detroit Engine Works. |

T&M, Detroit, Sandow, all are related. The pipe nipple sticking out of the top of the water pump doesn't belong there. Should be a pipe plug over the check ball. Carburetor not original in my opinion. If not a mixing valve original carburetor probably Schebler or maybe Krice. |

Yup on the carb, and other commets. To bad we don't have a pic of the flywheel face. That really helps id it. Pics from eBay for those of you who might be internet challenged.
