Hi George
The crankcase is interchangable between eiter side, please see attached several views of left and right side of the motors. The sides are tappered from the sump flange up to the cylinder block mounting flange. Each engine component is cast with the day, month and year it was made. I find this remarkable as their was a war on while they were at this ! Kind regards Matt

Putting the engine size in perspective
Been following this thread with interest and it wasn't until the pictures just posted that the size of the engine was put in perspective. Not until you stand the engine upright next to a person do size of these engines really come through. They are big.
Cheers Phil

Engine block
Fantastic and again thanks for the info.
That has answered my queries. It sure is a big 'un' though. Just enough power to move itself, let alone the tank. Not unusual though to have the stampings, it was a Government contract, so everything had to be recorded and listed. Thanks again for your help. George
