Thank you. Bluntly I was dependent in my guys at the shop. After the recommended engine my research confirmed the suggestion. As for the possibility of upping the engines.. check out the Facebook page for these guys. the only limitation is your imagination. And checkbookSounds like your strategy for electronic & mech simplicity makes sense. I'm not questioning your choice just wondering if it was an option from your builder. 6bt ( also 4bt) are solid power plants, very reliable and good on fuel.
There were considerable refinements from gen1 to gen 3, mainly increased Hp & torque, improved injection system, Econ, and seemingly smoother and quieter running. But maybe the 3rd gen would require up fitting driveline components to manage the additional torque & hp it puts out, or require more electronics to detune the engine.
Anyhow- looking forward to seeing how your Cummins upfit turns out.
