Dear Al Hunt, I was just reading the post below. I am a Technical Manager for a big shipyard in Palma de Mallorca Spain and at the moment I am after information for the Caterpillar D399 engine mentioned in this post. I have a client with this engine but there is no info available, the vessel was built in The Netherlands back in 1979 and back then all documents were paper files and not digital ones. It is proven difficult to get information about this engines. The installation arrangement needs new elasctic coupling between main engines and gearboxes and also the soft mount will be replaced by a new type.

However, in order to calculate the TVA and 6DOF I need to obtain an installation drawing of this engine with its gravity centre and weight. Also I need to find the engine inertia moment of this engine as well as the flywhee, details with regards to the damper are also a much needed info. I would appreciate if you can provide me with any information you may have, much appreciated.
