Does any one have a book that lists an old 6-71 engine with HV injectors? I need a printed page saying what year this engine is:

Serial number:

6A23789

Thanks if you can help...

I found this: http://igor.chudov.com/manuals/Detroit-Diesel/Detroit-Diesel-Series-53/Detroit-Diesel-Engine-Serial-Numbers.pdf (http://igor.chudov.com/manuals/Detroit-Diesel/Detroit-Diesel-Series-53/Detroit-Diesel-Engine-Serial-Numbers.pdf)

but it only goes back to 1960. Looks like yours is considerably older than that.
