  5. Lahon Special
    This 4-cylinder engine was designed and constructed in the St. Joseph, Missouri engine shop of George and Ernie Lawhon who campaigned it in their racing cars in the 1930s and ‘40s. There were at least two different versions of this single overhead cam engine, one with two intakes and another with four intakes. Both were cross flow single head and block castings with a separate crankcase and four exhausts.

    This dual overhead cam Model T Ford conversion engine was developed by Jack E. Gallivan and was available through his shop in Illinois from 1926 until 1930. The engine had a pair of two-inch valves in each cylinder and the cams were gear driven. It was considered to be rather pricey with the head alone going for around $750.
