    Well, the original engine was a Komatsu-Dresser (KDC) 410T/240T, which is based on the Cummins B series engine, and which was built in Poland. Why anyone would go to the trouble of fitting a Cat 3204 to a TD8H, when it would be much cheaper and easier to fit a good used B series Cummins, kind of makes you wonder what they were thinking?
