Mystery Diesel Model... Any Ideas?

[hopperwhistle]

Just got this scratch built hot bulb two cycle semi-diesel engine model. I think the builder was loosely copying a Mietz & Weiss engine, unless somebody knows of anything else he might have been copying. Anyone know enough about big hot bulb oilfield engines to say what all this still needs??

Anybody?

I know nothing of these engines, so can’t help.
Right now it is just an objet d’art, I hope you get some feed back, as I would like to see any progress you can make.
Looks to have 9’ish inch flywheels, thx for including ruler for perspective.

Does it have a connecting rod and piston? Can you remove the cylinder head so we can see the combustion chamber? The main part that is missing is the fuel injection system, but as it is a hot bulb engine this should not be too difficult.
