    KCB C13 I overhauled three years back. Cat house runny yellow. Has held pretty good actually. The BW turbo does make pic look better and has performed well. Twins swallowed a valve.

    Rollin Coal how many cans are you looking for? Literally two cans does the whole motor. And once it’s done one can every couple yrs keeps it looking sharp. The Cat paint just lasts longer. And the John Deere paint is very similar in color, quality, and in price. Sucks when you just sunk a bunch of money in the motor but $24 isn’t a whole lot to finish the job ya know.

    Just enough to do at least 2 good coats on the motor. Yeah I know you're right its only $24. So the quality is probably worth it. I'm still pissed off about the $600 "no diagnosis" diagnosis. Maybe I'll just go to John Deere they're closer anyway.
