What can I expect for fuel consumption from a 3412 Cat coupled with a 365kw generator? Probably using about 300kw.

I've dyno'd a 3412 outa a 5 gallon bucket to see how it ran after we pulled it from the bone pile and it sucked the bucket dry in about 10min.😮 That was from warmup to full load. I personally hate 3412's and 8's they dont hold up on a drilling rig.
