New Repower Engine Options Include REPTO Configurations
Reduce downtime and labor costs with C-12 and C13 Cat® Reman engines with new content
By Caterpillar | Posted: September 2024
Now available: Cat Reman C-12 and C13 engines with new content that make repowering your truck simpler and less expensive:
C-12 standard configuration
This engine comes with a standard flywheel housing configuration. It offers all the advantages of other Cat Reman engines with new content — including 100% new cylinder blocks, cylinder heads and crankshafts.
C-12 and C13 REPTO configurations
These two engines come with a Rear Engine Power Take-Off (REPTO) configuration. That saves you even more time and money, since there’s no need to reconfigure a standard engine for REPTO applications.1
Can I repower my truck with a C-12 or C13?
It depends on which Cat engine you’re currently running. You can choose a C-12 or C13 Cat Reman engine with new content to replace any of these models:
- C-12
- C13
- 3176
- 3306
- C-10
- C11
What do you mean by “new content”?
Cat Reman engines with new content are fully assembled solutions that come with 100% new cylinder blocks, crankshafts and cylinder heads. They’re an ideal repair option if:
- You need to restart the lifecycle of your engine, making future overhauls possible.
- You want to move from an older, higher-emitting model to a newer, lower-emitting one.
- You want to replace another engine brand with a Cat Reman engine of similar displacement and emissions level. (Some exclusions apply.)
- Your existing core is damaged due to failure or has no value due to excessive rust and corrosion.
C-12 and C13 Cat Reman engines with new content deliver like new performance at a fraction-of-new price. And they’re backed by a two-year unlimited miles Caterpillar Limited Warranty2 with Extended Service Coverage (ESC) available for even more peace of mind.
Am I eligible for core credit?
There’s a good chance you will be. Greater flexibility in core acceptance criteria means we consider damaged, rusted and low-value cores for full core credit.3 That includes:
- Broken crankshafts
- Damaged or ventilated blocks
- Excessive rust and corrosion
- Fire damage
We also consider competitive cores with similar displacement and the same or newer emissions than the engine being replaced.
