Twin head Pontiac motors marine applications

[Guest Arniland]

I am researching the conversion of the original twin head Pontiac 6 engines for marine use. What I have thus far indicates that they were converted by Grey from 1926 through at least 1931. I have found an original installation in a 1931 , 18 foot Chris Craft runabout as well as cabin boats around 28 feet in length.

Can anyone out there point me to other existing examples, photos and/or any documentation?

Thanks in advance for any help,

Arn

Back in the 60's there was a fishing boat in Gimli, Manitoba that had a 27 Pontiac engine and two with 26 Studebaker engines. I was actually in all three boats and saw the cars that the engines were from. At the time I was looking for Studebaker body parts and did not pay a lot of attention to the engines.
