   I've only seen one, and I had to buy it. My marine output actually mounts on the front of the engine, not the rear. It's on an L-head. I suppose it would mount on an F-head, too. **Steve E.**

   I had one that had two cyl. blocked off (From the fact.) and was used as a pwer plant for a search light.

   Interesting ... I tried to find more information about the search light setups, but didn't have any luck.

   All of my family members call each one of my Willys treasures "boat anchors". Windyhill, are we related? (lol) I bought two L-head boat motors simultaneously. The other marine engine was a Universal, which I'm still learning about. Yes, I've always wondered if the old L4-134 marine setup would ever be needed by anyone. I'd like to see some pictures of the type of vessel that was powered by an L4-134. Was it a barge, a Vee hull??? I'd also be interested in seeing the two cyl generator setup. That's a bit of history I've never seen! I have an old welder made with an L4, but it runs on all four. **Steve E.**

   It looks like saltwater application with raw water intake. Corrosion/rust--not good. Tom in Maine( marina owner)
