Caterpillar intruduced Acert technology to meet EPA '04 emmissions.
Yes, Cummins N-14 was what it was called before they redesigned & renamed it ISX. DOHC and everything related to it was probably the biggest change from N-14 to ISX.

The bridge engine come out on 10/02 with the smart waste gate, these engines were bad for fuel mileage and high exhaust temps, software changes and fuel number changes cured most of that, and they could only goto 525 hp. But I think the best 3406E engine is a 6NZ peffix engine.

6NZ being the C15 engines. Up to (and over) 550 hp.
The ISX, originally built as the "signature 600" engine, was rolling down the road in 99 - 2000.

I just had a look at the Cat SIS flashfile site and there are no 717hp files nothing over 550hp, usually there are emergancy applications that have higher ratings. Does that truck have pittsburge power on or some kind of mod?

When I was a Shop Foreman for a CAT dealer in Indy. Off road GENSET engines were tagged C16 with twins at over 900HP. Would have made a hell of a haul truck, with VERY low MPG....

I worked for 2 years for Nabors drilling here in alberta. Previous I built well service equipment and built lots of stuff for sanjel. now that I work for the detroit dealer. I've done some field calls to their stuff. but since the patch has died this year I've only done a couple calls to sanjel.
this one went up to work the north slope. Heli portable double.
I was working hydraulics at that time. we usually turned out these heavy triples though.

When I worked at Crown Energy technology actually, there was 1 blender we built for Sanjel. was moving 115 m3/s of water on the test stand. At the time that was the largest blender sanjel owned. and the biggest 1 we ever built. proabaly 7 years ago now though.

not so many sanjel fracs around these parts. I think up north they have a bunch. but in southern alberta BJ has tons of 149 frac still on the job. we work on them all the time. I did fuel rails and water manifolds on a BJ 149 DDEC not too long ago. theres one in the shop right now getting the Allison overhauled.
