Cat 406

[yellowK20]

My Dad runs 3 C-16's 5 C-15's one N-14 and a handful of Bigcams and one KTA 600we had two trucks with the 60 series they were both pretty problematic . We ended up pulling both and replacing one with an N-14 and the other with a C-15 of course my Uncle swears by detroits (I'd just assume swear at them) he has about 13 Logtrucks all 60 series equipped

The first 2 numbers are the engine series. 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 of the old series. smallest is 30, largest is 3600's.

last 2 digits are the actual engine designation. 3208 is a v8 that would fit in a pickup 3406 is a larger displaement in an inline 6.

3408 is a v8, but much to big for a pickup. they're in dozers.

3616 is a V16 stationary engine. Gas compression station or very large power generation. A 3618 weighs about 85,000lbs.

At work our fleet is primarily T-600's (I hate the 600 to low to the ground) with N14's. We do on the other hand have 8 new w900's due for delivery in early June with C-15's with twin hair dryers. We have a wide array of trucks really about 130 in all. As for the 3406 I love the old B models, pretty much everything mechanical.
