Though not a marine application I thought you might enjoy this...This is from a 1916 Lombard Tractor Truck catalog.For a short time Lombard, with its factory in Waterville, Maine offered Van-Blerck engines as standard equipment. Interestingly, though these two photos illustrate a Van-Blerck, the specifications provided and dedicated engine illustrations are are for a Wisconsin 6 cylinder (5-3/4"x7")
Best regards, Terry |

That is seriously cool Terry! Not surprised that it is using a Van Blerck. From the top, it looks like a Sterling model F except for the center-line which would have a water pipe instead of the spark wires. Way Cool! I want one! Cheers, Lew |
