I like the 2 cycle Detroit engines ! The 53, 71 and 92 series engines I thought were good engines. They were screamers.
I worked in a lot of diesel power plants, some of them used 6-71s that ran at 1200 RPM, they were fairly quiet, some of the power plants used 6-71s that ran at 1800 RPM and they were real screamers. There was also 8V71s, 8V92s, 12V92s.
