Posting this on behalf of a friend in Ireland. This V Twin, probably compound engine was built by a fellow allegedly to drawings from Model Engineer. It has now passed onto a new owner who wants to put it into a vehicle of some sort, the builder has lost the drawings however. The only dimensions I have are cylinder bores of 2” and 2.5”. This to me seems a little large for model engineer drawings so making an assumption it has been scaled up from a smaller design.

Anyone any ideas or suggestions on what it might be or what it may have been derived from?

Thanks in advance,

Paul.

More likely designed for a small boat/launch rather than an attempt to model a larger engine. Steam Boat Association would be the place to ask.
