Cat also had a V8 engine that was a disaster. I am not sure what model it was. I managed a sand plant where we had a fairly new, (back in 1985), Northwest Dragline, (crawler crane) that had a big Cat V8 in it. That engine stayed down more than it operated. I tried to get it transfered to another location, but nobody wanted that Cat.-powered machine on their property.
The engine was probably from the late 60's, or 70's.
