MTU's 12V183TE93 engine. vides more air for improved combus- tion and operational efficiency, and lower gas emissions for environmen- tal friendliness. MTU will continue to offer the current TE92 ratings for the 6R, 8V and 12V at 500, 665 and 1,000 hp in a new, lower-profile pack- age, providing builders with a wide choice of power options.

MTU also presents a new version of the 331 Series — the 12V331KS.

The 331 is a "non-electronic," short- stroke version of the 396. Rated at 1,600 hp, the engine is available with VDO-type monitoring for sim- pler installation and greater flex- ibility for production builders. The 331KS is also fresh-water aftercooled, eliminating a major cause of possible unreliability.
