Keith,

Over here, the common ones fitted when in commercial use, were Ford 4D diesel, Perkins P6 and I knew a chap with a Chev HUP who fitted a Bedford 220 4 cyl diesel.

Also Bedford 28hp petrol engines replaced the Chev 216.

I should have remembered the Bedford. There's one at Yass in a C15.

Drove a F60S with a 245 Dodge/Valiant Hemi engine and gearbox , needed the front extending to fit the unit in .
Very nice to drive .

Lot of Chev,s end up with the 53 onward 235 chev engine.
