Look like a 45HP or a 55HP combine engine. The 45 are hard to tell from a 55 from the outside because the main difference is the bore. Different magneto brackets, and mags were used through the years but were interchangeable between the two engines. The engine in this movie has a Bosch mag on it and not the Splitdorfs used early on or the KW model HK (high bar) that most of us are use to seeing.
Thanks! I noticed one of the jugs was welded up too. Pretty cool to see an old Holt engine in a movie!
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
