The least expensive way to go, would be another 6.4, just saying.

I was thinkin the same thing

To the original poster, it really depends on what you want and how much you want to spend. A 5.9 Cummins would be the most common swap, and therefore easier and most likely least expensive. Now on that topic, if you go with an older 12 valve Cummins, it will be much less trouble to swap in as it has no electronics. You could go with a newer commonrail Cummins, but the engine will cost more, the parts for it should cost more, and overall the swap will cost more.
