I write articles for the newsletter of HCEA Canada. I am preparing an article about a friend's HD-16D. I have a fair amount of general information about the HD-16 series, but very little about the HD-16D. What were the beginning and ending serial number? What was the first year of manufacture and the last year? What series engine was used in the HD-16D? What was the displacement? What was the torque? What was the bore and stroke? What was the flywheel HP? What was the drawbar HP? What was the advertised/claimed HP? What was the operating weight of the HD-16D without attachments? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Philip, I looked in Norm Swinford's book and found no mention of a HD-16D. Lots of other letters for different options etc. I have literature and specs etc and can help you but don't know anything about the 'D' designation.

Just have a few tidbits to offer from a book of mine, "Classic Vintage Crawlers & Dozers Vol I" .....shows a pic of a 16D in work clothes, with a "Jearsey Spreader" attachment (mainly shows the spreader) and the caption reads " Allis Chalmers began placing a new 16000 Series engine in the HD-16 in the late 50's. This is a 6 cylinder, 844 cu. in. naturally aspirated engine that can produce 170 ghp. In 1960, two new models were offered: the HD-16D and DC. D was a direct drive; DC had a torque converter. Both have the same power as the "A" models, but have longer tracks" end of quote....Then it mentions the Jearsey spreader.
Also in the appendix in the back of the book, a DP and GB are listed along with the D and DC, showing they were built up until 1970, when the B series debuted.
Hope this helps a little.... w/o making things more confusing..: )

I owned two HD-16D's, they had two different 16000 series engines, my earlier one had the 16000 series and the later one the 16000 MKII series. Both had oil master and steering clutches/brakes, as opposed to the dry type in the HD-16A. The HD-16A also used the "Buda" 844 engine (non-turbo'ed)...... Bob S.

Hi Bob. Thank you for the information. After a lot of searching I obtained technical information about the HD-16D series. My article appeared in the most recent issue of "Dominion Iron", the newsletter of the Historical Construction Equipment Association of Canada. Phillip
