I can't speak for anyone else - but I didn't mention it - since it doesn't seem to be relevant to the orignal question. I'm pretty sure they were designed by GMC, not Detroit Diesel. I had several of those GMC Toro-flow diesels - and in their time - they were often regarded as junk. Rumour was - that they were - to some degree -converted from a older gas-engine format. Besides the V-6s, there were also V-8s with 673 cubic inches. I don't know anything about the V-12 - I never heard of it - but can't say I ever looked. I still have a GMC Toro-Flow 478 cube V-6 up in my field. THe D478 (478 cubic inches) Toro-Flow diesel was rated at just about the same horsepower and torque as the Detroit Diesel designed General Motors 6.2 diesel (379 cubic inches). The 478 was 135 horse and 266 ft. lbs. of torque, and the smaller 6.2s are either 130 horse and 240 torque (C-code), or 155 horse and 260 torque (J-code).
