Oliver Motors

Depends how far back you want to consider Olivers Hart Parr built just about all of their engines and I think the early Oliver Part Parr's had there engine but with the 70 they went with the Continental and sometime made a deal with Waukesha.

The Oliver Waukesha deal was joint venture. Oliver did the castings, Waukesha did the machining & assembly. Now when you get to Oliver Diesels, the heads are different on a Waukesha engine than on an Oliver engine. That is one reason a lot of those castings have 2 casting numbers, one is the Oliver number the other the Waukesha number. When you get to the 310 1750 diesel it was a joint venture between, White, Waukesha & Oliver
 
Hi again, well after looking ans searching I don't think any Hart Parr engines were used in the Oliver / Oliver Hart Parr from what I find in 1930 the Oliver Hart Parr's had Oliver / Waukesha engines

they were all made by Oliver, Oliver told those who put it together what they wanted and those who put it together did what their employer told them to.

New a guy years ago that worked for a tool and die company, an auto manufacture used them for parts. They sent over specs for a bushing that went in their transmissions, instead of the hole being centered it was off just a speck so in the production they adjusted it to be centered. It being off would as evey one knows cause a wear issue.

The manufavture told the T&D place either make it as specked or we'll get someone else. Who made the transmission? I'm sure Oliver did the same, sent the specks they wanted and the people they employed made it to those specks. How else would it have bolted up to their tractor?
 
The SU9, 990 etc with GM diesel are often mentioned, shown, etc. Those with Waukesha engines instead of GM - were they pretty brutish, powerful as well?
