it's from an iveco N60 nef . i got greenlight  to repair it xD new engine block , crankshaft , camshaft , 3 conecting rods,  6 pistons estemated parts cost about 6000 euro i feel bad for that guy xD

That's a nice job to get that all working again, sorting out useful details and putting all in working order. 
I've seen a couple of blown Volvo 6-cyl bus engines. One had a broken rod and a small hole in block. Everything else was fine and the welder simply welded it together xD

Engine had a full repair and worked like nothing happened. 

Big engines are most awesome things.. Volvo's complete engine weight was about 1700kg and cylinder head only ~220kg.
Other had a broken piston. Half of it fell down from cylinder and got caught between crankshaft and block. Ended up with enormous hole in block

yea but welding an engine block comes at a risk though and you're never sure it's completely  sealed you better stitch and lock it. i had a big crack on my john deere model E got it fixed now 

[thejonny119]

Engine block welding is risky, I agree. That welder used to weld big ass ships together and was qualified for this job xD
I have one Deutz engine like that at granny's place. Original owner was my great grandfather. Not in working order but now you got me thinking about it

nicce you better get that beauty running then ^^ btw do you know what type it is ? 

 

[Ftwo]

I must find the original owner's manual. I know I have it somewhere. I add a video of similar one here. These old stationary engines have a soul and history in them...

Mostly like that but not 100% same thing. I have never found one that is 1:1 with mine.

[thejonny119]

yep each one of them has their own story to tell . if you got a picture of yours i might be able to help you find what type and an engine number can be helpfull too 

[Ftwo]

Yea have to take some photos of it when I'm there
