thanks for replies on Le Roi engine. I see there is a plate stamped with bore and stroke listed as 4 x 4 1/2 on side of engine . Allis Chalmers lists that spec. for wd 45 Engine is also set up with magneto. I removed valve cover to look at valve rocker assy and noted the valve springs and what looks like rotator assy are substantially bigger and heavier compared to standard AC head I have on work bench perhaps intake valve size is larger and that would probably account for slightly higher fuel consumption . I hope to get the timing correctly set and crank it up
Engine was last run in late 1960's
