I really don't know where you learned your Diesel Engineering, but
a 3408 CAT is a 3408 CAT, and it really doesn't matter if it is in a
truck, boat, or Genset. The only real difference is in the governer
and not really much difference there, either.....

I thought if you connected it to a marine transmission the price
doubled....(c;

Hmm...that's odd. Other than the seawater pump and heat exchanger the
Perkins 4-108 in the ketch looks exactly like the Perkins 4-108 in English
tractors! The parts even fit!


I was told, on a different series of engine, that the camshafts and valve
timing were different for a constant speed marine engine as compared to the
road engines.
