      Clark and New Process transmissions. Hydraulic with hydrovac, air over hydraulic, and full air brakes.

        As stated, most diesel Studebaker trucks used GM Detroit models in two sizes (three and four cylinders).
        I believe that the diesel Zip Van used a different manufacturer for the engine. Off hand, I do not remember, perhaps a Perkins as was used in cars.
