Engine size
Hold on a minute Bob, although there appears to be an adapter plate between block and pump the engine is showing two hold-down bolts through the oil cover which I think of as one of the signs of an early engine (1953 or earlier, so probably not 235/261). On the other hand I don't see the external line associated with the dipper oil system. The fan belt looks wide, so probably earlier, unless done to preserve appearances.
Stewart mentioned 216 several times, including as a replacement acquired but I didn't see him say anything about swapping in a 261, did I miss something?
I'm puzzled.
Stewart, can you clear up my puzzlement?
