| So, there's the non turbo'd version, Turbo'd and Turbo'd and charge cooled (CC)
Far as i can tell, the long blocks are the same between the turbo'd and CC models.
Same pistons, rods, and both sport piston oil cooler squirters. Anything else i may have missed??
Man, all I had to do was 'hint' i was thinking about repowering my 3545 to a new Sisu engine, and less than 24 hours later, i have a major piston slap/thunking. I shouldn't have even mentioned it... But, Aftermarket parts are, what they are. I rebuilt this engine about 3000 hours ago... about typical for me and aftermarket rebuild kits... I gotta have something back in that tractor by next weekend, and the fastest way is to grab a 'runner' out of a combine, change over anything to make it a 'tractor' engine, and roll. Add my intercooler intake, probably the exhaust manifold, change the water pump, remove the oil cooler and change the piping to radiator oil cooler.
My block is the 2714960-1 casting, and just about every 'runner' i've found also is that casting.. I've done several Dot 2-3 change overs, and had to deal with stress or non stress proof blocks. Apparently the Dot4 engines either were all heavy blocks, or they put them in everything. I rented a 6616 to get me by until then... man, what a steep learning curve on that rig!! It's like driving inside a video game... LOL.
