Perkins turbocharged 6 rated at 140HP.
The 8 speed was a solid transmission.
The 12 speed trans could be a problem if it wasn't maintained. Test it
going uphill as well as on the flat. if it shifts fine doing both and
doesn't lose ground speed with a set rpm it's likely OK. Shifting into
high range should jerk you a bit. If it is slow or sluggish going into
high it may have problems.
