But then the next question is: would a Hercules engine carry a Chrysler Dodge Plymouth De Soto logo? Or is it an entirely different engine altogether? Would not be surprising since this tracked vehicle is the proverbial bitsa.

The gear box has a very distinct square casting flanged front(Rear?) and I can find nothing in all my manuals that looks remotely like that..
I can't see any engine shots but if you can post some front/side /top pix of the engine I'll look at them..I was checking my Hercules JXD engine manual but can't see any engine shots to help ident it..
Shots of the engine/bell housing /transmission would be great..
Great looking pictures..
