Looks like a 4BT. Strike that wrong valve cover.

I knew it was no 4BT...being the huge cummins lover I am I can spt one of those at a 1000 yards...;)

It's sure appears to be a turbo charged...or super charged motor, diesel...???? I first thought it might be a Perkins...but a google search cured that thought.

Well jumped onto google and was searching 4 cylinder diesel motors in the image section...guess what I found....The REO truck from above. This guy had a bunch of pics on his site, and it is a small 3 cylinder detroit diesel motor!

They did make a 3-71, half of a 6-71 I was close.

I thought it must be a 4 cylinder...I did not realize that they did a 3 either.

Thanks to thrashingcows for posting the info. I was hoping to make the last cruise of the season but I have to work. Nice detective work.
