Name that engine
 
Name of the game is to identify the make and model of the engine in the picture. It is a 4 cylinder flathead with dual ignition! Good luck.

Yup, I think your right. That wiring harness protective tube looks right.

Early '20's Stutz. You can see the logo cast into the lifter cover under the front section of the intake manifold.

Prolly from a K series.

Interesting t-head design. Is it a 4 valve engine?

Yep, 1921 Stutz Bearcat engine. It is a 4 cylinder, 360+ cubic inches, 4 valve per cylinder with twin ignition! Idle speed is under 100 rpms! Usually put behind a 3 speed manual transmission. This engine had an electric starter!! Good call Baz!

I think it was, but not positive. Pierce-Arrow, and I believe Packard were doing the same thing sometime right before 1920. A camshaft on either side of the cylinders, and a cross-flow arrangement for sure. I believe the 6 cylinder engine in Woodrow Wilson's Pierce-Arrow was 4 valve...

Wondering why they didn't put the carb on the other side.

Amazing! I'd like to hear one idle.
