New member here from Tennessee. I've been getting more and more interested in Detroit 2 cycle diesel engines in the past year or 2. I ended up purchasing my first one this evening. It's a Silver Series 3-53 T. I have plans to put it in a 1954 GMC half ton pickup. I'm in the field of Industrial Maintenance. I'm a military veteran, and also into things that go 'bang'. Thanks for having me!
