Your Cat dealer......Cat puts out a "surplus" engine list every week and it has all sorts of engines from 3516 to C1.5. If your lucky a C1.5 could be on a list, at a great deal and no core

It is going in a woodmizer saw mill for one of my side customers. He just bought an engine about 800 hr ago and we installed it. Got a call monday night and stopped by and it was locked up. Looking to buy one quick and send his original in for a core and rebuild this one.
