That being said the price of a complete overhaul will generally cost a little more on a Cat, a little less on a Detroit, or Cummins. The price of a computer for the N-14 select will send you into mourning for a significant time, a Detroit that has not been retuned will cause you to dread a one percent grade, and if your buddy turns up your Cat, just go ahead and beat his eyes shut. Otherwise it seems to be personal preference cause I know guys with each flavor that have no intention of doing something else. They’re all making them money 💰
