    Need help with Komatsu d65e-6 engine rebuild

    I've got a 78-79 d65 with the nh220 Cummins, I brought it in for a rebuild because a blown head gasket galded a piston. Can this thing be in-framed in the machine? The back row of oil pan bolts looks like an issue. Anyone have any experience with these?
