I've one in a Fork Lift that runs, but need a "normal" timing cover for it, the one I have could be used I guess, but would have to plate over holes for the pump drive and such. Thanks
I believe Willys for one. Cletrac crawlers used them as well in the AG model. There were different timing covers for auto vs. industrial and gear vs. timing chains.
Most likely, we used to have some Cletracs 40 years ago, but never paid attention at the time what was in them, the one I have the engine mounts off the timing cover, were they all like that do you know? I'll check on mine n a bit of there's provisions for side mounts/etc.. Thanks
Hell, Continental made their own line of cars in the early thirties. The "Ace" and "Flyer" were 6 cylinder cars, while the price leader "Beacon", was a four. There was a guy who ran a '33 Coninental Beacon in B/Gas (I think) in the early 60's at Minnesota Dragways. It had an SBC and won most of the time. "Wikipedia" lists literally dozens of cars and trucks powered by Continental engines. The following automobile companies used Continental engines Abbott-Detroit Ace Ambassador Anderson Apperson Auburn Bantam Reconnaissance Car[citation needed](Y112 4 cyl. first Jeepduring World War II) Barley Bay State[4] Beggs[4] Benham Bendix Birmingham Blackhawk Bour-Davis Bush Cardway[5] Case Checker (pre-1965) Colby Columbia Comet Continental (see above) Corbitt Crawford Dagmar Darling[6] Davis[6] Detroiter[7] De Vaux Diana Dodge DuPont Durant Motors, including: Durant Eagle[8] Flint Star Economy Elcar Empire Enger Erskine Ferris[9] Ghent Graham-Paige Graham Hanson Hertz Hollier Howard[10] Howmet TX (turbine race car) Hudson Huffman Imperial Jewett Jones[11] Jordan Kaiser-Frazer, including Allstate Frazer Henry J Kaiser Willys (after 1953) Keller Kent Kenworthy Kleiber[12] Kline Kar Lambert Leach[13] Lexington Howard Liberty Littlemac Locomobile Luverne Marendaz Marion-Handley Martin Merit[14] Meteor[14] Metropolitan Monitor[15] Moon Morris Cowley Morris (manf'd under licence) National Noma[16] Norwalk[citation needed] O'Connor[citation needed] Ogren[17] Overland Owen Magnetic Paige Pan-American[18] Paterson Pathfinder Peerless Piedmont Playboy[19] Ralf-Stetysz Reo Wolverine ReVere[20] Roamer Rock Falls[21] Romer Ruxton Saxon Sayers[22] Scripps-Booth Severin[23] S&M[24] Stanwood Stephens[25] Thorne Velie Vogue Walker Washington Wasp Westcott Windsor Woods Yellow Paterson Pathfinder Peerless Piedmont Playboy[19] Ralf-Stetysz Reo Wolverine ReVere[20] Roamer Rock Falls[21] Romer Ruxton Saxon Sayers[22] Scripps-Booth Severin[23] S&M[24] Stanwood Stephens[25] Thorne Velie Vogue Walker Washington Wasp Westcott Windsor Woods Yellow Paterson Pathfinder Peerless Piedmont Playboy[19] Ralf-Stetysz Reo Wolverine ReVere[20] Roamer Rock Falls[21] Romer Ruxton Saxon Sayers[22] Scripps-Booth Severin[23] S&M[24] Stanwood Stephens[25] Thorne Velie Vogue Walker Washington Wasp Westcott Windsor Woods Yellow
Believe I have some NOS oil pan seals for them. The Kaiser seal is slightly different then the industrial seal. I have both. Also Checker cabs?
Helped build a sleeper in 1970 pulled a continental 6 out of a Checker and replaced it with a 413 out of a Chrysler.
Not a car but the Detroit Industrial Vehicle Company (Divco) used Continentals IIRC. Regardless, the dairy I used to work for back when I was in college pulled flathead sixes out of Divco's by the boat load and replaced them with Ford overhead sixes.
