FDNY bought-closed cab Firebrands. One was assigned to 82 Engine during Dennis Smith's time there.
Just conjecture, but if this were an IH chassis, I would think a big six like IH's 450 or 549FTV would be the powerplant.

The sixteen Firebrand pumpers delivered to FDNY in 1960 were powered by International V-549 engines.
