I bought a Perkins like yours that was rebuilt for a boat application. It doesn't have a flywheel , bell housing. What vehicles in the USA came with these engines so I can find the parts to put it in a truck?
Do alot of perkins smoke like this? I have a 4cyl on a chipper and it smokes the same no matter ambient temp etc im thinking the injection pump is shot but not sure.
Beautiful In Line 6. Also purchased something similar in for of a Volkswagen D24TIC for my Volkswagen T2 project I'm due to start this fall. Specs seem similar as the Perkins 6.354 also produces 120hp if a later engine. Either way keep us updated with your build :)
This engine was never sold in a road going application in the US. It can be found in Massey Ferguson tractors, many brands of combines and possibly other heavy equipment. There was an early CJ series Jeep sold with a 4 cylinder perkins but it is very rare. I have read somewhere that perkins no longer supports this engine. production ended in the 90's on it. Rebuild kits are going to be hard to get in the near future.
