Hey all 

 I would like to know what engine this is. It's KFS's "Number 13" engine. I'm hoping it's an early model DD13 Detroit.

Hi Ron - could be a couple of choices - a Google picture search on KFS's engine 13, turns up this - (AI overview says it's a Caterpillar engine)

I saved the first pic above, from KFS's web site and the saved file name says "C13TruckEngine-image3" (Caterpillar C13?)

So, maybe a Cat engine?

Hey Brian 

 I guess it could be a cat, but it's definitely not the 1693TA, I have one of those. Thanks Bud

Yep, it’s a Cat C13. If you’re looking for a DD13, nobody has made one yet, but 3d Concepts just released a DD16. It’s closer to a DD15 than a DD13, but probably as close as you can get at this point.
