Agreed- Steiger and Versatile used a lot of easily available truck parts, Cummins engines, although I would stay away from the 555 V8. In-line six is more dependable. Cat 3208- some call throw-away- that usually brings some negative response calling it that, but it gets its power from high rpm which destroys engines. Better to stick with a simple, low rpm dependable power unit, simple hydraulics, etc. Had a Case 2470 for years, 504 engine went bad and I put an 855 Cummins in it-= took a lot of reworking with a special adapter plate, but well worth it. Tremendous lugging ability. Why do so many current mfgrs go with Cummins now? Same with retro fit- Cummins has kits for their B/C series going into Oliver, JD, etc.
