odyssey Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Hi Steve- Dave Doman had it in his garage for many years and eventually donated it to Harrah's as I recall. I saw it there in the 1980's. I've got a photo of it. It is an interesting engine - cast iron block with integral finned cylinders and detachable heads. F-Head configuration. I believe it was installed in a Graham car for testing. 275 HP is rather inflated. The current owner has had it for sale at that price for quite a few years. There is info in ACN. Do you have an index handy?See you in caz!Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odyssey Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 In the drawing file there are numerous parts in the very late drawings that are attributed to the Series 20. For example, there is a piston drawing and it calls out for a total of 8 required per car. They still had something up their sleeves, even at the bitter end. I don't think it was this Domark F-Head eight, though as the Domark engine came later. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsancle Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Seems like Craig's list isn't the place to sell something like that. The 100k does seem a bit high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
