I'm not familiar with these new engines, but is it possible to tap out the mounting holes for 00-90 machine screws? I have done this on my Alco RS units when the metric machine screw wouldn't hold the sideframes in place properly. I enlarged ythe mounting holes for a 2-56 screw and voila! No more problem!
