The production line at the Detroit Diesel plant, making General Motors 6046 twin-diesel engines. These were comprised of two 6-71 inline six two-stroke diesel engines, joined together at a common output. The total power produced by the two engines was around 400 hp. They were used in the M4A2 variant of Sherman and vehicles based on it.

If I had a list of my favourite engines, Detroits would come at the bottom - by some margin. Outrageously noisy, simultaneously supercharged and turbocharged, parts never fit, not very economical or reliable, injection / governing system a joke etc etc.
