Case 400 diesel engine

CaseIL · Sep 23, 2012

I am looking at purchasing a Case 400 diesel. It needs a different engine put in it. Does anyone know what engines that Case made would bolt into a 400. I was thinking that a 730 might but was not sure.

Thanks

730 engine will bolt right in.

730 or 830 engine should bolt right in, but the oil filter will interfere with the steering shaft.
[size=18:0cdd667ea6][b:0cdd667ea6]DO NOT[/b:0cdd667ea6][/size:0cdd667ea6] put the 400 oil filter on the 730/830 engine, make a spacer for between the filter base and the block and use the 730/830 filter.
Don't ask me how I know.

What is wrong with the original engine? May be cheaper to fix that then buy another.

The engine does not have heads, and has sat for 10 years with out
them. After sitting for the 10 years it is going to need a conplete
overhaul, plus the injector pump worked on.

Don't throw the old 400 engine and parts away. I'm sure someone on here could use them.

A 700 or 800 engine will work as well.

I don't know what you have local but a 900/930 chain drive has the same heads as do the 500/600/700/800. I rebuilt my diesel a couple years ago for about $1200 complete with minor pump and injector work.
