I have a cat 212 motor grader 9T4398 with a blown head gasket. Pulled the head off and took it to a Machine Shop that was confident they could get all the parts and gaskets I needed. Now they are struggling to find anything for the head or identifying the motor. If anyone can help me with information about the grader and motor it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks. I'll pass that on to my machine shop and give Harts Machine Shop a call as well. Next week I'm going to the cat dealer in Indy. Hopefully they'll help out too.

Florin Tractor had all my stuff for my head on my 212 Grader 1R565. Valves, springs, head gasket. Their website has a parts number search, if you have the Cat part #

So at this point we’ve located most of the parts. I’m still looking for 5 valve guides. If anyone else knows of anymore resources for parts I would greatly appreciate it.

Also I read on another post that D-4/D315 valve guides could be modified to work can anyone comfirm and possibly have the part number for that valve guide?

“OK, I stand to be corrected. I jumped a line to the D3400.
D311 Valve stem dia. new Int. = 0.435- 0.436", Exh.= 0.434 - 0.435"
Guide dia. = 0.440 - 0.441"
D315 Valve stem dia. new Int. = 0.435 - 0.436", Exh. - 0.434 - 0.435"
Guide dia. = 0.440 - 0.441"
You are correct on the guide lengths so yes, looks like you could cut down the D4 guides to fit the D2.”

Its no big deal for a machine shop to make new guides for you. I made all 8 for my d4400....WA7OPY

Hi Team,
surely any worthwhile engine cylinder head repair shop can source suitable guide sleeves, to fit after boring the existing guides--our local shop Dealer used did this often on older units that parts were scarce for.
Cheers,
