There's a great video of someone starting a D379 (they called it a D397 - I don't know if that's a spelling mistake or is a different engine - in any case the one on the web is a V12) using a D2 and belt pulley to a flat belt pulley on the crank of the D379. That's some pony motor : ) and it makes it work too when they enable compression

Got the deal done and a handshake! They will load , I am OK there. Gen serial #, 2754 no other id such as 8S etc. Gen part # 6F1956. Serial # 6805674. Pony and main stuck. I have no further info . Maybe someone can investigate those gen numbers. Will have more photos when I get it home and safe.from the general population!
Thanks, Herb

I did get a close look at the sn. Not 2754 but 2V54. Common mistake.
AND did get the big engine to turn! Not far about 3-4 in on the flywheel, so I think that may be OK. Pony motor is still a lump.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
