- Richard N. & Richard F. are perfectly capable of dishing out all the details!
All I can add is a confirmation that the 6046 was the twin power pack version of the 6-71 engine for the M3A3, M3A5 and M4A2 medium tanks and M10 and M36 SP guns. The "power pack" was merely a common base for two engines, which drove a common drive shaft through their own clutch.
