i say any of the 5.9's are good but i'm a ford guy so the dodge part of that i can't help ya with
|
just my personal opinion, stay away from the 98.5-02 24v Cummins. They have a VP44 injection pump that likes to go out, and is very costly to replace. It's still a really good engine, but you always run the chance of an IP going out.
You will have much better reliability out of a 89-98 12v or an 03+ Commonrail Just my .02 :tu: |
common rail :drool:

It all depends on what you want to do with it and how much money you have to do it with. older trucks tend to be a bit cheaper to mod and easier to work on being mostly mechanical but with newer trucks that are computerized for lack of better term...are easier to mod but yet more expensive and harder to work on. |
