    I get what you're saying but youtube can also be a massive source of knowledge. In fact the particular youtuber he linked has years of videos covering cat engines and is fully, unarguably, legitimate.

    Cummins should have never ended the N14, one of their better engines….

    At 50-55K big yikes. Though at the same time new cat. Still bonkers though. The ones they wanted to sell factory remaned with a 5 year were 30-40K 10-30K unknown used.

    They didn’t have any choice but to get rid of it. They were going broke from not selling any parts for the N14 :D
