The pedestal base is very early 1900s or 1890s. Can you post some better photos? How and where was the engine found? |

It's one of the Detroit Auto Marine Family. There were several names used on these and they are fairly common. Here is some additional info http://www.oldmarineengine.com/discus/messages/1/8041.html |

If that is a bronze cap mounted on the cylinder head it bears a resemlance to the bronze induction pre-heat cap on my old Sintz ??? |
