    I am thinking there is a core charge for liners if buying genuine cat, and from what I gather, you are buying refurbished pistons and liners when buying genuine cat, they have had some trouble with them, their rebuilt heads too.

    If the rebuilt engine had a bad ground, no parts warranty covers liners pitting from electrolysis.

    Don't feel bad, my lawyer who I've know for 45 years still looks at my like that when I try to explain things, I told him he had to take a class how to look clueless.

    They don’t rebuild liners, pistons, rings, wrist pins or bearings, they are not reusable. Heads, blocks, rods, turbos, water pumps, are rebuildable , that’s why the core. This rule was only for buying rebuilt or remanufactured parts. Buying new did not require a core. You were buying new, not rebuilt. They wanted the core to rebuild and resell, if you bought a rebuilt part.

    If you read the first post, he clearly says new, not reman.
