I have this engine we removed a few years ago while cutting up an old steel dragger. S/N 32b655 Power unit. Heres some pic.s . Im looking to see if it has any value for parts. It was an engine room power unit.

    Looks like a D342. Long block parts might fit to a guy’s D8H 46A/36A???Probably not a spacer plate motor though.

    Ill have to rig up some cooling on it and see how it runs. It would good to see it help keep some ones D8 going

    The block, crank and heads may be the only interchangeable D342 parts which would make it useable to someone with a D8h.

    That is a perfect mailbox stand. Your wife would really appreciate your originality!
