They spent years testing and designing their parts and I have faith they know what is best for their components. Like I said earlier, I believe in following all the maintenance recommendations of the manufacturer. My truck only had 80k miles on it, so replacing these parts was not because the old ones were bad, I'm just chasing the idea that diesels are the new hot rods on the block lol. During this process I have all but completely torn my engine down within the frame rails of my truck. Over the past few weeks I have been doing some heavy upgrades to my engine like a new cam, lifters, valve springs, upgraded head studs, rod bolts etc. I have a lot more to learn and it seems as if I learn something new every day. Now I have only been a diesel owner for about 2 years now, and I have learned a lot. I am a big believer in maintenance and upkeep on all of my vehicles. Anyways, I am an owner of an Mega Cab with the super cool 5.9 Cummins. Whether you are working hard or hardly working, Cummins engines offer power and durability for just about any task.First off I apologize if my writing and posting skills are a bit off the wall and hard to follow, it's just how I am. You may find both types of Cummins engines within the large inventory on eBay. The first Cummins 24-valve engines were 5.9 liters, but in 2007, Cummins released a more efficient 6.7-liter engine. The 24-valve Cummins head holds the engine together to make sure that your engine is always firing on all cylinders.

The direct injection engine is electronically controlled, so there is no need for glow plugs since these engines use a heater grid instead. The turbo diesel engine has a high output, but operates efficiently and with reduced emissions, while 24-valve Cummins injectors provide the right mix of fuel and air to keep the engine running smoothly. Depending on the model year, these Cummins engines have between 215 and 325 horsepower. Imagine strapping up to 325 horses to your tractor to get the same power as a Cummins 24-valve engine. Before the invention of the engine, workers relied on draft horses to haul loads and get work done.
