Bonjour à tous !
I have a question about a 641087 wich is a little bit different of what i saw in your database ?
I know that whent Willys Overland France starts to built the M201 jeep , a clone of the MB with a reenforced Frame, they got some engines from the US stocks . Then they casts their own blocks ( 80101 hwof) based on the 641087 .
I baught my M201 in 1993 from the French Army , but my wife died and i let the jeep in "a corner" up to 2015 when i retired and got enough time to "rebuilt the car !
I would like to know the casting date of this block which seems to be designed for a M38 ( connection between the head block and the water pump) ?
can someone help me to dekript the foundry marks ?

i did'nt find the way to insert pictures ?
Regards
Pierre

Bonjour,
J'ai à la fois un M201 et un M38. Etant donné que mon moteur M38C (reconstruit) fonctionnait correctement, je devais remplacer ce moteur par un ancien M201 français. Le support de moteur avant gauche nécessite un support car les plaques du moteur sont orientées dans une direction différente pour permettre l’ajustement de la pompe à vide, mais cela fonctionne. Je n'avais pas remarqué qu'ils étaient le même casting. Je devrai chercher plus loin.
Merci beaucoup. Vous trouverez peut-être des photos dans mon album ici sur ce site.

All the best,
Dave.

Pierre,
here is my M201 engine in the back of my M38 before I was forced to swap engines.

Piere,
voici mon moteur M201 à l'arrière de mon M 38 avant de devoir échanger des moteurs.
