Original head removed from a 1HP Rock island built engine, I believe it’s the same head he 1 1/2HP models used as well but please measure your engine before purchasing!!! Valves move freely and look very usable! Definitely need lapped/seated in before installing! Center to center head mounting bolt hole spacing is 3 1/8. Will need new exhaust and intake springs. Please keep in mind this part is over 100 years old and is not new condition! See pictures for the absolute best description. Rock Island Alamo Empire.

ROCK ISLAND ALAMO EMPIRE COCKSHUTT 2-3hp Hit Miss Gas Engine Cart Magneto Steam

Comments Off
Original factory cart for a 2 1/2hp (ish) Rock Island, Alamo, Empire, Cockshutt, or other Alamo-built engine. Cart is in good condition with no cracks, breaks, or repairs other than a crack in one spoke in a rear wheel which will affect nothing or could easily be remedied. It rolls and turns nicely. It would be a nice compliment to your engine to be sitting on a factory cart or would look good under many engines of the 1 1/2 to 3hp size. I can deliver for free (or a cold beverage) to Coolspring, PA, next week, or LeSueur, MN, Baraboo, WI, Portland, IN, or Coolspring, PA, next year. Let the pictures be your guide. You’ll like it.

Old ROCK ISLAND EMPIRE ALAMO Hit Miss Gas Engine HEAD Magneto Ignitor Oiler WOW
rock
Comments Off
This is an original cast iron cylinder head with valves for an Alamo, Rock Island, Empire, Cockshutt, or other Alamo-built hit and miss or throttle governed gas engine. The head has a part number of 5948. The head is about 7 inches in diameter and mounts with 4 holes on a 4 1/4 inch square bolt pattern. I would say this is for about a 4-5 hp engines. If you know what size it fits please educate me. It is in good condition with no cracks, breaks, or repairs of any kind. The valves are both in it and look like they are usable but the intake valve is bent a bit and will need some attention. They both move but are a bit stiff. There appears to be very little wear on the faces of the valves or in the guides. The setscrew for the mixer moves as it should. Please measure your engine to be sure it works for your application. These original parts are quite tough to find in the wild or even at swap meets! If you’ve been looking for one to complete a restoration or to replace your broken or repaired one here’s your chance. The pictures tell the story. It would surely beat making one! The item “Old ROCK ISLAND EMPIRE ALAMO Hit Miss Gas Engine HEAD Magneto Ignitor Oiler WOW” is in sale since Friday, April 14, 2017.

Up for your consideration is a 3 to 5 HP Hit and Miss gas engine factory cart for either a Rock Island, Alamo, or Empire gas engine. The cart is in great original condition with no cracks, breaks, or welds. All wheels turn easy and the handle is nice and straight. Only problem I see is some of the hub caps don’t match with show be an easy fix. Total length of rails is 46 3/4″ and total width is just under 12 1/2″. Front wheels measure 14″ and tears measure 15″. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask. Baraboo as long as it is paid for. Make sure to check out my other items for sale.
