    The crankcase looks much like a prewar Kiekhaefer twin but with external reeds like the
    early Kiekhaefer singles. I do not believe it to be a Kiekhaefer product but it appears
    I could make it a running motor using Kiekhaefer components.
    With the solid center bearing each half of crankcase would function as a single cylinder
    motor so it looks like it would need 2 carburetors or poppet valve fuel mixers…
    without linkage to spark advance…Would be nice to find it to be an early Mercury
    dual carb race motor LOL
