When I do my changes, I do the Generator and CAT 3176b at the same time....for both: 10 gallons of Oil, 3 oil filters, 3 fuel filters 2 air filters(the big one is not cheap)….the Fumoto valve speeds things up since I drain it into my concrete mixing tub in the street, then pour the used oil back into the new oil containers. (taking the oil in can be a challenge at times to recycle.) I buy my Delo at Costco, buy my filters at FilterBarn and do all the work myself and have done it for 15 years on this motorhome. The estimated cost between oil and filters varies depending on the sale cost 200.-250.00 for parts.
I've rebuilt the air dryer and new spin on cannister 4 times over the years and that generally adds another 60-70.00. So, 300.00 for what your getting doesn't seem all that bad.
PS....look at the OP's tag line, he's got a 600hp Volvo engine, it uses a few more quarts that a typical large gas engine. Hell the air filter is probably a 50-75.00 item even at a discount store.
