Wanted: 6046 power pack

[Frank v R]

Hi Kyle, somebody in France is said to have some that are rebuilds , I can't seem to get a line on them from this side of the world, we are also looking for some of the parts that are Sherman only, the 671 you can use any of the models of blocks as they are interchangeable, do you have any engines now? the gear box and the fans and manifolds are the hard to find items,
regards Frank

Hi Frank,

Many thanks for the reply. Sadly I haven't got the 6046 pack yet nor have I got any 671's......that's interesting about the chap in France will have to see what I can find out for the both of us.....what bits are you missing?
so iam correct in saying that the engines are just standard 671 engines, same as the commercial truck engines.....and just the gearing that is unique along with some other bits?

you have the idea now , if you want a cleaner burn go for the 4 valve heads , but do your homework on the 671 first, we have one Sherman with OE the other with 4 valve heads, happy hunting, I remember when Levy Auto parts had them stacked like cord wood, all gone now,
regards Frank

Yep - that's my understanding, too. Even the blocks can be assembled right and left handed, as they are mirrors of each other. There is a ratio difference in the gearboxes before the final drive - several options are available for other applications.
