Valves: 020 exhaust, 016 inlet - couldn't find if this spec is hot or cold

Wow, that's a lot of engine for that dragline. Did it replace a D13000 that was in there?

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
