Hi.
Does anyone know if i can replace the engine out of D2 4u 2442 with the engine from D2 5u 17820? My 4u has a cracked block and a straight engine swap might be the easiest way out...
i realise the pony exhaust is different but was hoping to juggle the bits around as required.
thanks,
peter.
ps: as a fall-back, can i swap just the blocks?

I have the engine block from 4U1029 for sale. It will probably need bored out or resleaved because it is stuck. 702-243-6557 www.ferraridoctor.com.
I did not notice you are in New Zealand. If you could use it I have shipped a number of Ferrari parts to Australia and my Caterpillar mechanic is from New Zealand.

At least one book everything looks the same
I also replaced engines
At D2 and D4

We have parts at the museum
Save money and time sometimes replacing a complete system
I ran into some problems with engine generator
Installation on tractor
As long as there are a few tractors always has a solution 👍

The D311 engine in the U series D2's should interchange.

The difference between the 4u & 5u series D2's are the track width.

There may be some small hangups between the earlier U's and the late models.

Here in Israel we mark them
By a narrow or wide caterpillar

As I wrote above
Generator engines require a lot of improvisations
and adjustments

"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."
