Model T transmission

[emhab17]

Is there any way to get a drawing or list of specifications for the Model T engine?(preferably one around the model year of 1921, though theyre basically the same.) I am doing a full-scale modeling project and need to somehow obtain dimensions and a good sense of the design layout. Any help is appreciated.

Haven't yet seen a dimensional drawing of a T motor. There are lots of pictures for these.

Here is one sketch with dimensions for a Model T frame, that may help you get proportions.

Thanks that may help a bit, but I am still looking for slightly more in-depth detail of what I have seen already. I was looking moreso for valve, crankshaft, and piston dimensions, and a better idea of what goes on inside the engine itself. I will soon have access to a real engine to measure off of, but if there was anyone who had some sort of drawings or tables of information of the engine's internal structure it would make things much easier. I have found some pictures of cross-sections that provide the layout, but they all seem to lack any kind of dimensions. Thanks anyway

Glad to help you some more. Here is a webpage with specs on the Model T engine, that will give you some of the info needed.

Can email you a few pics of a cutaway Model T motor if you send me your email address.
