Engine with side wall mounted vibration isolated manifold

Abstract From the Canadian patent

Abstract of the Disclosure, An internal combustion engine having side wall opening intake or exhaust ports is provided with a manifold carried along the side wall by a resilient vibration isolating mounting. Substantial separation of the supporting and sealing functions of the manifold is provided by use of separate resilient support and sealing isolator means, the support means acting between horizontal support surfaces spaced at a substantial distance from the vertical sealing surfaces of the manifold passages and ports between which the sealing means act.
