The Detroit Diesel Series 71 is a two-stroke cycle diesel engine series, available in both inline and V configurations, with the inline types ranging from two to six cylinders (a single-cylinder version was offered for marine applications only, produced early in the series' run until about 1950) and the V types ranging from six to 24 cylinders. It was introduced as the initial flagship product of the Detroit Diesel Engine Division of General Motors in the division's 1938 founding.
