Most cars are Indirect air cooled.(the heat transfer is via a radiator) It's the terminology, Direct air cooling or indirect air cooling. No one seems to know about the heads. The cooling fins appear to run the wrong way. |

Re: ID a twin plug Flatty?
Here in New Zealand there were twin plug heads made in the 50s or 60s by Ron Hogan, of which some survive today. I believe his son Garth may still have the patterns and may have produced some.
