O_D, Beautiful engine, simple and clean looking - elegant. Also note that Marmon used a cross flow cylinder head design with intake on one side and exhaust on the other. I believe all the other multi-cylinder v-type engines at that time had all the ports on one side (inside). This made routing exhaust a bit of a problem and crowded the top side of the engine and placed a lot of heat near the carburetor and intake manifold. Thanks for sharing the photo.
