The 616/5 was an industrial engine for aircraft refueling rigs -- yes, I was an Air Force supply officer back in the 60's in France where were had these engines in the back of fuel tankers. The engines powered pumps to put jet fuel into RF101B recon fighter aircraft. I had Porsche parts in stock to service the engines!

Walter, I did not know any details about the engines back in those days. However, you can find quite a bit of information about industrial engine here and there on the internet.
The best list I have found of Porsche design types is this : https://kukuk.com/wp-content/uploads/20 ... nliste.pdf
