Just Wonder if anyone on here has had experience with the rather uncommon 51 series Detroit diesel two cycle diesel. I'm a big fan of the 53 series, and just discovered the 51 series that preceded it. I'm aware that the 51 had no valves, whereas the 53 used exhaust valves, and that it expelled exhaust gas through a full loop scavenging system. I post this here because I've read they were popular in marine applications. Inline two and four cylinder versions were made, with the former being even more scarce than the latter. I haven't found much info on them, so I'd love to hear more about them.
