DD made thousands of 6V71s. Installed in most of the GM transits up until the late 70s. |

First digit = number of cylinders
V = V-configuration, otherwise straight
3rd-4th digits = Cubic inches per cylinder
2 stroke DD's are cool. I first worked on 12V71's on the old LCM-8 landing craft in the navy.
If it's not "weeping" a little, and you can't smell it, then you're not running it hard enough. |
