  |
|
Found a old leroi air compressor unit laying in the woods today. I have a wd 45 so I am familair with them. This leroi manifold is a very heavy solid cast no vented openings at all just one big chunk or iron. Number on it says 10 356. What is this motor and as far as making hp is it a good candidate to look into. Manifold looks mean!!! Head is off and laying there it has a combustion chamber in it and valve springs are much bigger dia too.

Its probably a lp intake . It will be heavier and should breath a little better has plenty of meat for porting unless the elements have got it compromised.
