There most of not been to many of these engines made. Noticeable differences in the Caille and Detroit are:  (1). Caille crank shaft is tapered and threaded on each end with nuts.  (2). Governor linkage and air-intake different shape castings then Detroit. (3). Boss on side of water jacket for oiler is longer  then on a Detroit.  (4). Diameter of piston, flywheels, crank shaft not the sameas Detroit's spec's.
