Looking through an old magazine  POWER FARMING  from September 1919, and seen an ad for the Twin Cities 12-20 description of 16 valves in their 4 cylinder tractor engine.

 And today several are making the 4 valve engines.  Funny how the past has become the present. LOL

I've had several of those Twin Cities and they are a LOUD powerful tractor.  I still have a 1921 10-20;
Here is a pic of one of mine.

A farmer in the area were I grow up in the southern part of Saskatchewan had a Twin City. The only one  in our area. He replaced it with a British Fordson tractor. I never saw another one of those either.
