It has a one barrell carb with an opening the size of a quarter or so.

The crosley engine was light enough that a really able guy could handle it with no equipment. I knew a guy that used one with a chain drive for his boat.. When he found the chains started to turn red he converted to a multipal belt pulleys transfer drive. . This was a long time ago on my paper route at the time. He also claimed he physically carried the engine home.
