Fairbanks-Morse
Fairbanks-Morse model numbers are a combination of three different designations: design year, letter designation, and bore size. Design year is the year that the design was implemented ('32, '33, '37, etc). Letter designations include A for a flapper-type blower, E, F and Y for a crank-case air scavenging system, and D for a piston-type blower. For example, a 32E14 is an engine designed in 1932 with a crank case air scavenging system and a 14-inch bore.
