Thanks for the info; I suppose the downside to unique is parts availability, or lack thereof. It looks like the 4bt might be my best option. I know where I can find all the parts for one of those. What are the specs on that susi engine?

Sisu was bought out by AGCO in 2003, and is now replacing almost all other engine manufacturers used by them. It is an awesome engine, balanced like nothing I've ever seen from a mass producer of engines. Basically, just a well built engine....like most engines today.

What I like about them:
Mid Liner support...no cavitaion and a stronger cylinder
6 Head bolts per cylinder
Balance
TONS of torque

As far as detailed specs, let me dig them up off my server and I'll post up what I have!
Chris

If you want to see the 3114 cat buggy in action. Google "Diamond Dave Cat buggy" you'll get some hits. Hand built tube chassis, rockwells, 48" Michelins.

Ill spot you some pics from my laptop when I get back from the mine in the morning.

Not a big fan of them since they went to the Tier 3 emissions standards. WAY too many top end problems, and they seem to eat injectors faster than our other engines. We don't have a ton out there, but what we have had, have been hit or miss.

BTW, mine were the real Perkins version in MF tractors

Stick with the 4BT, or if you want odd, go with a Deutz air cooled, or a Sisu Diesel. Those are odd engines that are worth looking at I think I have a Sisu 4.4L 105hp left around here...
Chris
You're holding out on a Sisu 4.4l??? GIMME!! I have a Jeep that needs it!!
