Today I got my head for my '65. It has a motor attached to it, which has a ponton attached to it.

PO says this ran when a tree fell on it so I'm planning on using this 190D as a donor. I will start a new thread with this project as I'm going to need a few tips on what things I should do with the motor out.

I have an I-beam in the garage with a trolley which should help a bit. I think I will keep the original 190D motor with the assumption I'm going to eventually put it back in the Heckflosse when this one quits.

Thoughts and ideas always welcome.

Yes, it was one of the two that I sold yesterday. If I let that engine sit too long it may be less reliable. Ran a year ago, then was parked in a concrete garage. besides, he needed it and I still have several older diesel engines in the inventory

strelnik, we'll put it in this '65 and see what happens! The plan is to get it running before dropping it in, possibly replacing the seals if necessary. Hell, anything I can do that's easier with the motor out, I'd like to do.

This is my first motor swap but I think I can manage it.

I guess you already sold that fintail diesel you got from Lafayette?
