The JXD was used in Studebakers, Federals
Ford M20's, Diamond T's, and other heavy weight trucks from the times. You
may have some trouble finding the correct accessories to fit onto your
truck, but if you get a good block and crank, you should be able to find
everything you need to rebuild it. This engine is one of the better
performers of WWII. Seven main bearings, so if taken care of, they will
last forever.
