DWF 54 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Adams graders which became Wabco had IH engines as an option. I had a 1969 Galion 503A grader with a UD236 IH engine. It was a great grader. Used it for grading smaller usually narrow roads, had a 10' blade. DWF Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pede 12 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Believe it looks like a 118 but hard to tell. I had 2 Galion's, great graders, first with hydraulics. Had a 118 and a T500A, most you could get with different engines, IH, Detroit, Cummins and I think Ford. Lot better grader then the old arm busting Cat's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hector gemme 3 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Am still have a GALION like this one but mine has a DETROIT 371 motor in and 30 years pass he had a ADAMS grador with a UD16 motor in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
