Toro Flow Diesel Engine & Trans

Sold


This was previously posted here: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=493449 but I reposted with the proper South Dakota Prefix.

I'm finished with my Cummins swap, so the old motor has to go. It is a 73 GMC 478DH Toro Flow diesel V6, pretty rare motor. I also put on a gear reduction starter that was machined to fit the block with a custom adapter (spent $500) and it cranks over like clock work. This engine came out of a 73 2.5 Ton dump truck and placed in my 68 back in the late 70s. It runs great and I have a video of it idling while it was in my 68 K20 Suburban.

Included is the transmission which is a 5 speed non synchro truck transmission. It uses a hydraulic master and slave, which I will include. From the information I have GM truck transmissions (large centerbore) will fit to the bellhousing on this motor so you can use a synchro trans if wanted. Also included are all mounts from the engine to the frame and accessories on the engine. The AC compressor is removed, but the power steering pump and alternator are both in their brackets and are included. A mechanical drive diesel tach will complete the package.

This motor is in Sioux Falls. Call me at Edit: (Seven 0 One) 541-7081

$750 for everything, not willing to separate but can negotiate on price and pick-up/delivery.

Final picture is an idle video.
