These engines are kind of oddball, 120 HP inline 6-cylinder turbo diesels, with the horsepower rated at 3,600 RPM, pretty tight-wound for a diesel. I've had one on my dyno, and they make the HP they're rated for. A good injection pump shop could probably bean it up some without overstressing the engine. They're take-outs from UPS vans, originally designed as power generator engines by Onan, and inherited by Cummins when they acquired Onan. They were used interchangeably with Chevy 292's and Ford 300's by UPS, with just a fuel change to make the vans diesel-powered. The engines ara approximately the size of a 292, and just a little heavier. I've got 4 complete, running-condition engines, and one parts engine which is missing the cylinder head. The bellhousings are the old hydraulic-clutch types used on late-50's Chevy V-8's, with the throwout fork on the passenger's side. Any standard-shift 4 or 5 speed with a standard Chevy bolt pattern will bolt up. The clutch is the Chevy heavy-duty 12 inch type. I'm thinking I can also adapt a Chevy-pattern automatic, either turbo 350 or 400, if I don't want to run the stick shift. A belt-driven vacuum boost pump from a GM engine like the Cadillac 262 cubic inch V-6 will handle the brake booster if I decide to run power brakes.
