Looking for a single cylinder version of the pictured engine. Wouldn't necessarily need the Fairbanks-Grant Tag. An engine built in Ithaca would be similar, in that I'm not sure they made their own engines. I have a 1905 era Launch for which I would like to find an appropriate engine. I couldn't get the attachment to load in the classified so I posted here. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I've had this launch for more than 12 years and I would like to restore it and get it into the water.

Keith, interesting project, the engine above post sure looks like Barber,Syracuse,Parker,Van Epps heritage ?

Four marine eng mfgrs reference names in Ithaca,Ny and were intermingled from a quick look !

1. Fairbanks-Grant Manufacturing Co.
2. Champaign Brothers
3. Ithica Gasoline Engines
4. Thomas & Grant

references appear to be 1904-1913 ?
I'll see what I can come up with !

1905
