Lister diesel info. wanted

[ldj1002]

I have and old garden tractor without engine. It came with Briggs, Kohler or a Lister Diesel. I put a Wisconsin in it and it filled up the place for the engine. Looking on the web for Lister, what I find is a lot larger that my S10D Wisconsin I installed. I would like to put the Lister on it but all I see would be too big. Did they make one about the size of a 11 hp briggs or a K series Kohler, or that Wisconsin I put on it. If no then they must not have used the same tractor for the diesel as the other engines. The sales brochure shows only 1 tractor.
BYW the Garden Tractor is a Homesteader built in Clinton Arkansas. This is NOT the Homesteader built by Allis Chalmers.

There were three or four small diesels made by Lister, and Petters as well, but I don't know if production/sales of these went to the USA or not.

The AC1, AD1 etc were small compact hand-start diesels, used a lot over here in the UK.

The PAZ1 Petters diesel was relatively large, as was the LD1 Lister, but these are probably the most likely to have found there way over the pond.
