As Murphy strikes again. We just lost a member of the family , our dear D318 lost a rod. Found the pieces but engine is done. Went threw both sides of the block and the oil pan.
So I need a running or not complete D318 something I can rebuild or good complete bottom end and block with wet clutch oil pan.
This is off a cat 12- 70D3223 "59" model.
And or if anyone knows if another later engine will retro in I am willing to do that.
I'm in Kenai Alaska. Will ship anywhere in us. Just need a motor.
Thanks guys.
BTW, this had pony motor. With machined spot for starter so can use lots of parts off mine still. Head is also excellent shape.

Thanks

Not just any D318 will do. Has to be compatible with grader oil clutch configuration. Different block, crankshaft, flywheel and oil pump to deliver and return engine oil to clutch.

Hello is a 318 from a D6 9u farm tractor going to be compatible? Have two parts tractors with oil clutches, both turn over but are missing parts to start and I have not tried to run them. Located in eastern Washington, Mike

Hi Mike,
as OM and others have said above, ONLY a Grader engine will fit as there are many differences for the oil clutch system for the Grader engine application--different and special crankshaft and cylinder block for starters--these are major items that are NOT used in any other applications and so a D6 or other application D318 CANNOT be used in your Grader as a replacement.
You are limited to finding a used Grader application engine only and/or parts.
Cheers,
Eddie B.

Thank you to whoever saw this wanted poster. Then called the guy in California who's dad passed away. His dad had purchased a D318 wet clutch motor out of a grader in Texas I believe , hauled it to California, rebuilt the complete engine. I purchased it today and shipper has it. Will be delivered next Friday hopefully.

Thanks
JP

"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."
