Closer, but still no cigar.....

The M52 is powered by the Continental R6602 602
CID gasoline engine, 224 HP, 504 lbs-ft torque. The M52A1 is powered by the Mack ENDT-673 Diesel Engine, a turbosupercharged 672 CID unit, 211 HP, 610 lbs-ft torque. The LDS-465 powerplant was in the M52A2, it was a 478-CID turbosupercharged Multifuel powerplant delivering 175 HP, and 425 Lbs-Ft of torque in this application. The M818 used a Cummins NHC250, a naturally-aspirated 855-CID engine delivering 240 HP and 685 lbs-ft of torque.
