Check out the Buda generator that powered this coastal artillery battery in the SF bay area during and after WW2. Is this the same one out of a D17 diesel or a bigger version?

Looks to be older than a wd45 or d17 diesel engine power ------------- Experience is a fancy name for past mistakes. "Great moments are born from great opportunity" 1968 D15D,1962 D19D Also 1965 Cub Loboy and 1958 JD 720 Diesel Pony Start |

The injectors and pump are on the wrong side to be a 230 or 273. Can't be a 262 either. Interesting find. Does it run? ------------- "Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the government take care of him better take a closer look at the American Indian." Henry Ford |
