Same bore same stroke but different crank and heads. I still have a few 40s
and 36s around here. I just landed a crank and am trying to research it. 36
hp style with counterweights and a longer stroke but no mfg markings..
Journals are 10/10 but I'll have to polish it.
It's not a weld up either...

Well Will; technically the 40 bastard is really only 36 according to the
manual. But, the original bastard was replaced with a factory replacement
40, so I guess it really is 40. But, in the old days of drag racing in a
Type I, a 36 horse would outrun, barely, a 40 horse in a quarter mile. The
40 would out top end the 36 slightly, but the 36 had slightly better
acceleration for some reason. Have to take my word for it cause there
ain't no more bone stock untouched 36 and 40 horse from the factory engines
around anymore.
