The engine was used in an airplane in the Thirties, when aviation became the popular hobby in the states. It was later used on a farm in Michigan to pump water, which is where I found it. the transmission counter-rotates to the engine crankshaft. I had to make an oil-enclosed gear drive with two HD second-gears from a Panhead to correct the transmission output rotation. That was the most difficult part of the build. I've had it over 70 MPH so far. I am working on a 1300 cc 1924 Henderson Deluxe now. I am going to attempt to break the land speed record for Henderson at Bonneville, making it The World's Fastest Henderson (124.5 MPH in 1924).
