i just got a 91 with new engine

[sid]

Is there anyway I can look and verify that it is a new engine. It looks clean but i HAVE SEEN TRUCKS WITH 177K LOOK CLEAN// NOT QUITE AS CLEAN AS MINE THOUGH?

Hmm... How to verify it's a new engine...

The best thing to do would be to run a couple oil analyses through Blackstone and check for blow-by and compression.

None of which will tell you the age of the engine, but if everything is running ship-shape then the engine is capable of lasting another 1,000,000 miles, no matter how old it is.

Join that site, try the free version first, it along with your engine serial number will tell you information about build dates, rework, etc. ESN found on driverside engine front timing cover. But unfortunately when scammers sell "new" engines, they tend to remove the data tag on the timing cover so that no information can be obtained about the engines history.

[Begle1]

By "new engine" we are referring to "rebuilt", right?

Does Cummins still make VE-equipped models?

[KTA]

Yes there are still VE equipped motors being made.

[Begle1]

Oh. I did not know that.

Just cut it in half and count the rings!

Then you can make a 25% profit by selling the two 3bt's seperately!!!

I like the way you think Begle1...
