HD3 engine swap?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Got a salvage yard crawler with a bad engine. No injection system now and engine turns stiff. Anyone tried to put another engine into a HD3?  
What would be a good transplant engine to set in it if able to do so?
 Or does someone have an old Allis-Chalmers diesel 175 cube engine laying around that was taken out of HD3/ D15D that would be usable for donor parts?
 Here is a pic of crawler, blowing critter nests out of valve train area cuzz valve cover was sitting on the two studs.

 On market place, seen a Simpson SJ436E engine says 46 kw, and a Perkins 404...Also a 4 cylinder Mercedes OM616 2.4L Would that make the crawler run like a Cadillac?  
  I might have to go hunt down a D15 160 cube engine and put in, probably be the easiest avenue to go.
   Sure would like to keep it diesel.
        Thanks, JC

	I don't know how far you would go to hunt for an engine? A guy in Canada (in BC) swapped out a 175 diesel in his forklift and put in a Detroit 2-53. I know he was trying to get rid of the 175 but don't know the outcome. This is the guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvhKNc7XIQU He has a thread on the forum here, but the 'search function' is not doing anything for me. Eric

	H4 AC used a 2200 AC engine that was also used in cotton pickers and few other units , it was a gas or diesel engine basic and turbo or natural aspirated in different applications The Allis-Chalmers 2200 (often referenced as D2200) is a 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine utilized in various Allis-Chalmers agricultural and industrial applications, including tractors like the 6060, 6070, and 6080. These engines are known for their reliability but may require overhaul kits for maintenance https://www.google.com/search?q=Allis+Chalmers+2200+engine&rlz=1C1HKFL_enUS1206US1206&oq=Allis+Chalmers+2200+engine+&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOdIBCjE0MzQ1ajBqMTWoAgiwAgE&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Edited by Coke-in-MN - 8 hours 14 minutes ago at 10:48pm

	That's a nice looking D2200 engine there in your link Coke, just wish it was closer instead of next to the Washington state border.

	As far as I have been able to determine, the 2200 series engine (G-2200 gas/D-2200 diesel) was never turbo-charged. I had it in my head that there might have been a D-2400 that was turbocharged, but can't seem to come up with anything by googling. I thought I read that a D-2400 existed from a head gasket installation instructions sheet many years ago. The newer 1978 433-T and 433-TI engines were the first to be turbocharged and turbo/intercooled. They also were equipped with a Lanchester style engine balancer in the bottom of the engine so they could operate at 2500 RPM. These changes allowed the flywheel HP to reach the 100 flywheel HP mark where the D-2200 only ever got to 50-52 flywheel HP @ about 2000 RPM.
