Yes the late 886 had a 358 German diesel reason being IH was using all the 360 engines in trucks and got the 358 brought in from nuess Germany. And yes it was a 986 cab. Towards the end of the 86 series IH had so few cabs they were grabbing cabs assembling them with whatever Fans they had. The cab serial tag states the model of tractor it was to be put on. Our 1486 had 1486 on it and the 886 with with the 360 had 886 on it. Then our late 886 with the 358 had 986 on it. I've read about this in one of the IH books and it's been talked about over on the redpower forum. The 886 wasn't the only 86 series like this, sure there are more out there.
