Hi, I think the number you quote is more likely to be the serial number rather than the model number of the engine. How many cylinders does it have?

I just have the info given to me by the auction company. Not actually seen it in person yet. The truck engine is Caterpillar 1693 and the engine on back, running the HUGE snow blower says is Caterpillar M238. I have the only bid of $150 on this unit. To be sold in 2 days.....Also, the auction company is selling this "old" heavy duty truck for the United States Air Force. I was told has not been run for about 3 years.....
If you can get them to send a couple of photos of the snowblower engine (each side), someone will be able to ID it
For that era it could have a 1673 V8 or possibly a 3408, those blowers took some horses!
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.
