They were humongous at least the one we used!
Its pronounced Bu-duh and the one in the large Dart dump trucks 20yards +These engine ran on propane --6 cyl-inline turned rather slow and had a hugh amount of low end torque. My guess is maybe 6 to 900 cu.inch.We could tell when a Dart was coming down the haul road at night because every time the driver shifted or let of the footfeed abig blue blooping fireeball came out of the stack.We had 6 or so of these in operation at The John Day Dam,about 100 miles east of Portland Oregon in the 1960.s I think they may have been made in Wis. have also saw smaller one in six cyl.
Hope this helps you John
