Check out the OLDIHC forum, oldihc.org I have a 1951 International pick up and spend quite a bit of time over there and have often seen numerous GRD motors or motor and transmission combos for sale as the civilian K's and KB's used them. They have a classified forum on the site but also look at the forum called "Diamonds in the rough" Member post links to ebay listings plus listngs from craigs list from all over the country for IHC trucks and parts. Green Diamond "flatties show up on that sub forum as well.

They have a military vehicle forum there also although it doesn't get many hits. After missing out on an IH military I ended up with my current Chevy Truck............wish I could have both!

Good luck.

Jerry Biro, Hercano Propulsion, did have an NOS Green Diamond 233 a few years ago. This is a late 30's thru 40's engine.

Just keep checking the classified section and "Diamonds in the Rough" daily on OLDIHC and pretty soon you will hit pay dirt.

I think I have a lead on a good motor for you, I am waiting on pictures to see exactly what it is he has. If it looks promising I'll hook the two of you up.

Does this look like what you are after? I think he may have new gaskets and seals too.

Probably most of the civi motors are unless it is one that came out of a cab-over style truck.
