The Cat coolant is actually the Shell Rotella ELC coolant, but is simply labeled with the Cat labels by Shell. As I searched and searched for my own supplies to do the exact same switch last spring, I found that getting the concentrate from the local Cat dealer was my cheapest option... something like $18 per gallon for the 100% concentrate, and $15 per gallon for the 50:50 premixed.
