Mark,
Interesting setup. One roller diameter looks like twice the diameter of the other. Any idea who the manufacture was? Stan |

My guess on this is it could be a old natural gas 2 cycle engine and the large roller setup is for the injection valve in the head. I have seen roller lifters on the old engines dating back to the 1930's.
I worked in the gas transmission and oil field all my life and there are many strange setups produced by many different manufactures. Cooper-Bessemer made many different natural gas engines in some very strange configurations. I toured their Pa. facilities in the mid 1980's and it was so diverse. Old equipment dating back 40 or 50 years producing state of the art equipment at that time. They employed a great number of employees. I really enjoyed seeing the casting part of the operation for the large parts. Just My Take Rick Cates Canyon, TX |
