The engine in this model of Dodge is longer than the one used in the WC Dodge and spare parts may prove difficult to find, does anyone have experience of sourcing parts for this engine? Or can anyone point me in the direction of someone or a company that is a specialist regarding these engines?

Those Canadian wartime engines usually have a 3 and 3/8" bore ( 218 or 228 ci ) but the later 3 and 7/16"bore engines (250 ci) will fit in easily . Chrysler had a factory at Kew UK ? Try Vintage power Wagons in the USA

A chap on the HMVF was looking for a head gasket for the same type of truck, I thought it was you but it turns out somebody else in the UK has a similar truck to yours. link http://hmvf.co.uk/topic/29555-dodge-t-110-d60-l13/
