[SEL] Massey Harris tank cooled

[Curt]

George,
I knew I should have taken a close up of the casting that made this MH a 
tank cooled engine! Missy questioned its' authenticity because the cast 
top didn't perfectly follow the upper contour of the waterjacket. But 
the top of the plate had some pretty fancy ribbing and lands where the 
bolts attached it to the cylinder below. I was inclined to believe it 
was authentic. John Hammink's post confirms the factory option.
Ya know Hercules made such a cast iron cap and sold a screen cooled 
engine fitted with a water pump. Would you call that a screen cooled engine?
