It was not very big. I didn’t measure it but it appeared to be maybe close to 24 inches in diameter. Here is another picture in relationship to the corner of a single axle trailer so you can get some kind of idea of the size. Someone put a Craftsman lawn mower carburetor on the unit. In addition to how the fuel delivery system worked, how did it fire 5 cylinders, one at a time? The flywheel looked like a regular Scott but I could not see 5 separate coils or anything from underneath the flywheel. Also, the jet unit is about double is size of the Schadke Mid Jet and others. It is my opinion that Scott tried to make a more powerful outboard jet unit and this was an experiment. Another question I had was how was the exhaust exited out of the unit. On the photo that the motor is on its side, you can see the water cooling distribution system and each exhaust manifold coming into a common housing, but then where did it go. If it went down the mid section, it would have had to exit above the jet unit and not into the chamber due to the ventilation of the prop inside the housing. This is very interesting and raises a lot of questions. I would love to take it apart to see how it ticks!
