The Model N engine was produced by the Ford Motor Company for the Ford Model N, which made its debut at the 1906 New York Auto Show in New York City. The engine was at first a two cylinder with two spark plugs per cylinder, and by 1907 a four cylinder option with the same layout was available. Its valves had an L layout, a flathead arrangement with one valve per cylinder set off to the side of the cylinder, its stem pointing towards the crankcase and oil pan at the bottom of the engine. That layout works the valves with a push rod system, so there is no direct contact between the camshaft and the valve, and unlike the valves the spark plugs were not set off to the side: both plugs sat directly over the top of the piston.
