Would anyone happen to know the weights of a Cat 3208, Detroit Diesel 8V-71, and a Detroit Diesel 6V?

Thanks

I believe the CAT 3208 weighs in at about 1200 LBS or so.I'm not sure about the other two engines you mentioned.

1200 pounds sounds kinda lean for a 3208. I'd say closer to 1500-1600, since the 3116 weighs 1200.

8V71 should be in the same range.

6V should be about 300 pounds lighter than the 8V.

I'll dig my Detroit service manuals out this weekend and see what I can find out...
