Not so sure, Duisenberg had both SOHC and DOHC production engines. The picture you posted of the Kaiser OHC engine, is that in the same Willys as shown in your avatar pic?

alsancle Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Don’t forget Stutz in 1926. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scramboleer Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Thanks. I wasn’t aware of that. Hat tip to the Duesenberg engineeers. That’s impressive. Maybe one might consider the Willys 230 OHC one of the first mass-market U.S. OHC motors. Yup, that pic is of the motor in my red-and-white 1964 Willys Wagon Traveller. Great engine.
