My book states:
T116 engine used in:
Truck model WD 20 (41 to 47)
Truck model WD 21 (41 to 47)
and Truck model WDX (46 to 47)
It lists the engine as a 3 1/4" x 4 5/8" which is a 230 cu.in. (same as WC 3/4 tonners)
Lang the block will be the same. The 218 cu.in. has a 4 3/8" stroke as against the 4 5/8" stroke of the 230. Probably the conrods are different as well. Every thing else could be the same.
This is a MOTORS Manual, so no military trucks in this book. Definately a commercial if not civvy truck.
The WC1 to WC11 had a T207 engine. (218)
WC 12 to WC20 had a T211 engine. (218)
WC21 to WC41 had a T215 engine. (230)
The above are all 1941 1/2 ton 4x4.
The T112 engines were only found in 4x2 trucks (also 1941 1/2 ton) I have no info on the size of these engines.

Sorry Lang, I just read your post #11.
