8v53
There were two of these in the New Orleans area. They belong to a seafood dealer. I saw these motors. One was partially apart and the other was fully assembled.
I can find this man's number and call if you would like.
You can email me directly at cortezlandry@AOL.com
Also know that contrary to public knowledge, Detroit Diesel manufactures at least 8 of these blocks BRAND NEW EACH YEAR. Most of these are sold very quickly.
These are great motors. Lots of weight but lots of RPM.
Unlike anything else, I swear they would run off of beer and ice cream if you needed them to.
well maybe.....
