Re: Car Junkies should know this motor
OK. Yes it was called the Sampson engine. A 16 cylinder engine built using Miller 91 blocks mounted side by side on individual crankcases geared to a common output shaft. The two engines used a common induction system. The total displacement of the 16 cylinders was 202” (2.312 X 3)
Millers started out as 4 cylinder engines later they built a longer crankcase to allow the use of two 4 cylinder blocks to build a straight 8 of 91” These early engines were 2 valve overhead cam racing only powerplants.
That was kinda fun.

Re: Car Junkies should know this motor
the motor is simply cool looking... anyone else got something like it?
I tried to dig up a good Duesy motor... but couldn't really find a decent picture at the Museum.

Re: Car Junkies should know this motor
I'll see if I can find my old pics and send 'em to Keith. As I mentioned elsewhere, the ACD Museum in Auburn IN is amazing. There's a Deusenberg bare chassis that lets you see the twin cam up close and personal, but if memory serves, it's not a SJ (blown) motor.
