gentlemen,

i have heard for a long time that studebaker never manufactured for sale an engine over 304.5 cid. It is time to set the record straight. Studebaker, did in fact, manufacture and sell many, many vehicles with engines over 350 cid !! Not only have i seen and heard these engines, i have had my hands in the oil and grease. No urban legend, "no brag, just fact" as the man used to say. I can supply pictures, years of production, and serial number of vehicle so equipped. Anybody want to bet lunch on this ??

are we talking about m-35 trucks here? Did they have studebaker manufacturered engines or were they made by an outside engine manufacturer like hercules?

No, the big six engines from the teens and 20's were 354's, aome other pre war engines were well over 300.
