Are you looking for a 71 series or a 92 series?


They're getting scare, but are out there. The marine industry has dried up most of the stockpiles.

I have a 6V 71 that we have just rebuilt. It has one new head,all new liners'pistons ,rings,rod ad main bearings. It can be a truck or stationay engine with direct drive ,exhausts and radiator.

where are you at

you can get 8V92T's all day long from the military, you just got to find an auction site that has them, they use them in all the HEMMT's and HETT's.....

hard to find but if you look hard you can get the 6v53 in aluminum. look in the big truck junk yards and you could find a yard dog with a allison i know of two less then a mile from me. (iron blocks) would make a nice swap for someone. detroits are cheap and easy to reman and make some power in the right hands. logan has the right idea. try drmo website for a lot with detroits bidding starts at 35 bucks i think.

my shop has a 16v92ta in a genset that is burned up. just chillin out back for the last two years.
