 stumped me. My only thought might be an old truck or industrial engine? There must be a stamping on there somewhere

I recently saw a picture of an MB1719 truck with a V-6 diesel. Engine looked very similar to that with 2 extra cylinders.

It's air cooled....makes me think of deutz. The tri stars on the engine do not look added on.

I really do need to get an account on Expedition portal..... I'm with TBO, its either a truck engine or an industrial unit. I'm guessing the later considering it's mounting and whatever is attached to the back of it doesn't look like a transmission.....

If MB wont claim knowledge, this may be a hush hush project similar to a redheaded stepchild.
Perhaps much like Porsche, MB offered engineering consultation?

Ha Ha --- that's what, "I have not seen it in person" looks like when the right hand is moved over one key. It sure looks like a generator\welder behind it. Sure is an interesting air cooled motor though.

Here's a link you don't have to register for. Scroll down and you will see a similar MB V-diesel in the picture where the cab is tilted forward.

It's a Deutz aircooled fl/f series from memory, made under licence now, forget the mb rockers, lots of rockers are interchangeable and it means nothing.... or it's one of the zeppelin diesels, which I have never seen....
I'd put money on the deutz with mb parts to rice it up though.

I think the zeppelin motors were v12s....also prolly a lot larger than that.

Looks like it could be used in oilfield services, or a drilling rig.
