The Smith Collection at Speedway Motors - Start Your Engines!
|
This engine is a mystery. Bill Smith got only the Rajo head with a single-carb manifold attached. Restoration Manager Jim Schuman installed it on a Chevy block with an Offy dual-carb manifold and Fenton headers. Rajo made overhead conversions for Model T and A engines. Schuman thinks this head, with higher compression and larger valves, was built around 1951 by someone else using the Rajo name. The setup was probably designed to run on the single carb normally and kick in the dual carbs when the need for speed arose. View Related Article
