I have been taking apart a spare Model A engine. I think it is an unmolested engine as the bore is standard size and it has the original style non adjustable valve lifters. On the front of the fiber cam gear are the following in raised characters: THE CELERON CO, PAT NO 1061770, A6256 (Ford gear part number) and 168.
Has anyone every seen these markings on a Model A fiber cam gear before?
The patent number was issued May 13, 1913 and is listed as a gear wheel to a John Miller.
