Alright hopefully this post can generate a little bit of knowledge from around the country since my research has come up alil dry.. In 1932 JI Case purchased a diesel engine from Cummins one year later they released a prototype tractor they tested the tractor which supported the engine perfectly it was free standing like the case gasoline block and provided low operating costs along with decent power not to mention the idea was all sorts of cool... my question to the rest of collectors out there is... Is the prototype still in existence at any museum stateside? Also does anyone know what the block number might of been? Its something id like to see or on a further stretch like to duplicate beings I have an L with not a lot to lose..
 
I think the protype was an LI as like the DI
of the time It had a starter. That being said a
fellow in Whitefish Mt. )Think thats the name
of town) has an L 1938 with starter provision
that he put cummins in. I sold the I i n
original form to Charles English who sold it to
the fellow. Also Case built a few with the
Heilesman(sp) diesel which was a spark ignation
diesel . Thinl eother Don Livinston or another
case collector has one. Post on Case form and
others more knowledgebale will respond. Sorry
for spelling, my meds are messed up and I
cannot for the life of me get correct spelling
even with checl . Old age and strong medicens
do strange things to ones mind.
 
In 2013 at the Edgerton Wi threshing show there was another Case prototype the size of a L that started on gas and ran on diesel.
 
Whiefish keeps coming up I put it on the case side thanks for your help guys.. I did find out it was a model H cummmins block with a starter... im going to go through the process of contacting the heritage assn. for some assistance in maybe some other components I would need...
