Performance data is calculated in accordance with tolerances and conditions stated in this specification sheet and is
only intended for purposes of comparison with other manufacturer's engines. Actual engine performance may vary
according to the particular application of the engine and operating conditions beyond Caterpillar's control.
Power produced at the flywheel will be within standard tolerances up to 49º C (120º F) combustion air temperature
measured at the air cleaner inlet, and fuel temperature up to 52º C (125ºF) measured at the fuel filter base. Power
rated in accordance with NMMA procedure as crankshaft power. Reduce crankshaft power by 3% for propeller shaft
power.
