        Is that a Chrysler-built motor?  Only air-cooled motor worth a hoot in my book.

            As far as I can tell, they all were made by Chrysler.   It might not have an impeller.  I think it has a ram tube behind the prop to force water up to cool the exhaust leg.  Don’t know offhand what it has for ignition, probably Phelon or Wico.

              I believe it was made by West Bend before Chrysler bought them (Canadian ones in Barre, ON). Very reliable. May have been a Kissel design.
