Hi I am going to try this again but go about the pictures in a different way. The engne is an old over valve train overhead valve four cylinder. It has a single unit Delco starter/generator/ignition system. The fan is driven off of the cam shaft and uses a flat belt. the oil level is checked by a float in the oil pan that is attached to a pointer on the side of the engine. I have moved the photos to photobucket.com and I hope this works.

If you could tell me the make, the models of cars used on and the years used.

Thanks

Well, it is a valve in head engine with a Delco starter generator in line with the distributor and water pump.....just like a Buick & definately GM. Since the head is all one piece, I would guess it is 1916 or newer. Check for any engine numbers or numbers on the starter generator to nail it down.

HI Thanks for the info!! The serial number on the tag that is rivited to the engine is 428991 and the number that is on the Delco is L2131285-1 I am not sure about the L at the front or the a after the dash. Any more info would be liked.

Thanks

Ken
