Well, the MEP 105, MEP 006, and MEP 115 military 60 kW gensets are powered by a 6 cylinder Case diesel engine. I'm not sure if it's a tractor engine. According to the TM, a dynamometer test on the engine should show 120 hp at 1800 rpm, which is synchronous speed at 60 Hz, and 100 hp at 1500 rpm, which is synchronous speed at 50 Hz, at which it is derated to 50 kW. This confirms that the army agrees 120 hp is your number.
