Hello,

We run a 2008 MF 7475 with a Perkins 1106 motor, and from a product brochure its listed as a 1106D-E66TA.

It looks quite different to the 1006 motors in our 6270 and 399.

Just curious is the 1106 the same motor as a Cat 6.6 and therefore is essentially a Cat motor (of Cat heritage), not Perkins heritage?

Bought the machine used and would have liked to have got my first SISU powered MF but no complaints, its a great motor as are the numerous Perkins that power our 20 odd MFs.

Cat own perkins so its just rebadged and sometimes a different fuel pump.

Perkins also buy in a fiat power train or iveco engine and rebadge that CAT and or Perkins!
