The glycol types (PG and EG) are IAT coolants.

Is our new style LS engines a liner engine if so then we need a coolant supplement ? The only thing my owners manual says is ASTM D5216 that tells me its a Propylene Glycol base engine coolant Automobile and Light-Duty Service, so i would think that would mean that our engine is not a liner engine like the old MF 135 Perkins engine and not need SCA or Supplement coolant additive.

Personally , I flushed my engine with distilled water and switched to an extended life antifreeze ...not to protect liners (my tractor doesn't have liners "unfortunately") but to protect

I really don't know antifreeze. But I know that I have a 2003 JD dozer, got used. A little low on antifreeze. Took the cap off and the inside looked like new. It was really clean. I went back with the best JD antifreeze. I know JD does not make it. They have someone put their name on it. I was told to get the best with the most anti corrosion I could get. Or get an additive to put in it for the water pump and to stop the corrosion.
