This 3D-printed motor is designed from scans of original Maybach factory drawings entitled "French Army studies of captured equipment, 1945: General Arrangement Drawings HL230 P30", in the possession of the bureau d'études de l'Atelier d'Issy-les-MoulineauX (AMX). There were several minor variations among these motors. This design follows the configuration as drawn by Maybach.
