schematic is to be similar to 41E914410G3.

Pop test switch will be provided on the sensor box for diagnostics of EFI system.

The locomotive shall utilize a 17FM664F1 EGU panel. ACP communication serial link is NOT
required between the EGU and Locomotive control system.

Mainframe Assembly (Frame, Oil Pan, Crankshaft)

The engine shall utilize a short nose crankshaft with NO tapered end for auxiliary drive. The
mainframe shall be configured for EFI, and shall have NO provisions for high performance muffler
mounting hardware. (Simlar to 84D721160G7)
