Daimler-Benz management wanted to produce DB601 engines from the beginning (1937). RLM insisted on tooling the factory for DB600 engines. Daimler-Benz considered this a waste of money as they had to retool to some extent for the DB601 engine. One of many disagreements between RLM and Daimler-Benz management.
