The only thing I know of is the resistor mods. They fool the computer a little for about a 10-20hp gain. One (4.7k)goes on the ICP sensor and the other (3.9k)goes on the MAP sensor. For more than that, look to a Cat dealer for a re-flash.

Thanks for the reply, after further investigation I found that the 3116 is a mechanical engine
and has a fuel rack similar to the old detroits. Inside of the valve cover there is a rack limiter
and we just tool a round and a half out and that let the engine get more fuel.

Here I was thinking it was a 90's electronic engine. Good to see it's getting properly fueled!
