Two versions of this engine are shown here running with tractor and pusher propellers on 15% Nitro Glow Fuel and swinging 10X6 inch propellers. The pusher version was probably intended for powering boats. Note the difference in the two versions is the thrust bearing on the pusher located just aft of the drive washer.
