You sure it wasn't Fairbanks-Morse? FM was famous for their OP.
I don't believe Franklin got involved with large diesels- just
air-cooled aircraft engines (except for the water-cooled Tucker).

You're right. That'll teach me to get involved in a diesel thread with
aircraft on the brain. :-)

Didn't PZL take over the Franklin line?
