Schramm model 60 head gasket

[ihbrother]

I have a schramm air compressor/generator model 60 that I am looking for a head gasket for. it is an inline four cylinder model with two for the engine and the other two for the compressor. Could anyone please point me in the right direction for a head gasket.

What is the engine make?
I"ve seen them with Ford tractor engines, Ford
flathead V-8 engines, and Continental engines.
The one i"d seen apart used a Continental engine
and standard engine headgasket.

With all due respect, as Greygoat said, and as I commented on your other post, Schramm used a number of different engines, so you have to ID your engine; it could be a Buda, Cont, Ford, IH or something else.
If there"s no tag left on it (they can be covered in dirt or well hidden behind something) a pic would help someone ID it for you.
If it"s obsolete (not available here or NAPA, etc), Olsons or Gaskets-To-Go should have it or be able to make it, but they have to know what engine it is.
As I said before, my 60 listings show a Ford V8; that means either the 60 came with different engines for different customers OR you have another model. Good luck.

Just realized my original post was when the site was having problems, and may not've gotten through...
A prior Schramm post said a man named Frank McBride had worked for Schramm for years, and could be reached at Lena's Warehouse Parts, Ft Worth, TX, 817-370-2039.
Good luck.

The engine has schramm on the side of the block.

My brother is getting the numbers from the serial tag and will post number as soon as I can.

Are there any four letter sets anywhere on the engine, like DGOH, CGOH, COUF, DOUF??
Those are some engine ID"s listed under some Schramm models, and while they"re often listed as Schramms" "own" engines, I don"t know whether Schramm actually built them themselves or had them built to their specs, or modified, by one of the other engine builders.
One of these Schramm posts said Schramm was still in business; if they"re still supporting your unit they should be able to ID your engine. Good luck.

The numbers on the tag are
COUF 10429

MPK COUBEL5-2

Thanks for your help with this.

Forgot to add that if your local NAPA or whatever can't find a listing for your engine, and Schramm is no help on ID or high $$, try:
olsonsgaskets.com (Port Orchard, WA) (highly spoken of);
[email protected] (smokstak sponsor).
They may need any additional casting numbers you can find on the engine.
Good luck.

Could you recheck the number on the tag. It should have six digits. Model 60 Pneumapowers started with S/N 102000 in 1949 and ended with 104193 in 1956 according to my records.

I have the same Schramm comp. I talked to Sam @ Hardgrove A/C & heating. He is out of head gaskets. Mine is intact I'm going to use it for a template to get a new one made.

 

[ihbrother]

My mistake.

The number is 104209

 

[Sam Hardgrove]

Not sure what the year model is. Checked in two manuals and 104193 is last last one referenced, it was made in 1956.

I will be by it on Sunday to get a picture of it. I will post it.

My serial number sheet tells me the same thing Sam said, does not show that number. The head gasket number should be GOUB-214, this is the Schramm number. If Sam does not have, you have to make it.
