From the pictures and videos he posted it looks like a 216 to me. Does not look like a 50-52 235, which would be standard in a 51 6100.
Anyone ever heard of or know what a Barglad engine is? Thanks!

If you search the words Barglad Engine, results come back 216/235 related but with no explanation of what Barglad means. Bet someone on the site knows.
