Cummins Repower Garage Video 1: Kit Contents and Unpacking the R2.8 Turbo Diesel

[@beboboymann3823]

Cummins is great......have one in a motor home but to be truly unique I would want a 2 stroke Detroit Diesel all mechanical no electronics. There are a lot of them out there salvaged from stationary generators and pumps. A lot of folks have re-powered pickup trucks with DD's.

[@omaralba2272]

I’m glad they finally did this. I always wondered how it came packed, how big was the box, could I leave alone until ready to install,etc. Great job!

[@thegrizzlydude]

😂😂😂😂

[@jameswhitcomb4002]

At some point I have to make this happen. Instead of getting the 2.8 I just put 10k into the XJ for a Colorado trip with my dad, he couldn't give us a vacation so I'm giving him one. He loves camping and wheeling and his health is going so it was kind of a rush job. Soon I will grab another Jeep and put this in. I can't wait to get this!

You guys should provide ecm mapping software for upgrades . Thats why your 5.9 series engines are so popular no matter the generation they can be tuned.

Great overview. It answered a lot of questions. Thanks

[@joerangel611]

Great Video. Congratulations. I am amazed about the endless possibilities with this engine. Thank You

[@MrChuntaro]

I am building a 1949 F1 and want to put a 2.8 Cummins. My only concern is that if I purchase the motor it's going to take me over 90 days to finish the build and the warranty will expire before I can even get the truck up and running. It would be nice if the warranty was based on engine hours or someway to allow us to build our projects and have the warranty start when we actually start using them. That is the only reason I have not purchased mine yet.

[@holmes1956O]

Mr Chuntaro good point is someone at cumins listening

[@brittanyhuesman6234]

Warranty has been extended to 2 years, 2600 hours (still parts only)

[@ericgonzalez4065]

Is there a finance plan to get the engine because some of us aren't made of that kind of money to drop all at once ? but would be able to pay it off in payments.

[@KurNorock]

If your credit is decent get yourself two credit cards with decent credit limits. Get them from large banks so you can take advantage of a specific deal. Discover card is very generous with their credit limits. Here is the trick. It works, I've been doing this for the last 7 years to avoid paying any interest. Make your purchase with one of the cards. Get online, or call your other credit card company and ask them for their balance transfer promotion. Usually this involves paying no interest for a year or even 15 months. Transfer the balance to the second card and pay it down as much as you can while you have your zero% interest rate. Then after the 12 or 15 months, simply transfer the balance back to the first card using their balance transfer promotion.

[@gwolf7716]

A personal loan from your bank would be preferable to the CC trick since there is always a several percent transfer fee for the “0%” interest rate and funky fine print.... A day late and the rate jumps to mobster levels guaranteed. I’d think Cummins would eventually assist with financing much like buying a trailer or motorcycle/ATV.

[@KurNorock]

@@gwolf7716 The transfer fee is usually only 3% or less and it is a one time charge. A personal loan from a bank is going to be not only a higher interest rate, but also will charge you every month. And you shouldn't be worried about making a late payment. You should be paying all your bills on time anyway. And even if you don't have the money to make a payment one month, you can always just make the minimum payment that month and you are fine.

[@csxconductor100]

Yes save your money for a year and pay 0% interest

[@JasonY02]

Just put so much in a different account till you have the amount to pay for it.

[@Gold_Falcon_6]

[@iqinsanity]

Will you program an 1800rpm idle if we request? I want to repower my generator with a new reliable engine and this one is in my budget.

[@MegaSpazGaming]

I wanna use this for my 06 Ram 1500. It currently has a 5.7 and I definitely want something more fuel-efficient and unique. My guess is I'd have to source a GM transmission, but that's ok. It's a dodge so I guess you could call it "preventive maintenance".

You any good at math?

[@460EFI]

Will there ever be a 4.2L six cylinder version? And is there any possibility of a "race only" version without the EGR system?

Im honestly considering on swapping one of these in my uncles chrysler imperial to make it a daily driver. It seems like it would get good mileage and get the car up to highway speeds without an issue. I wonder if you can bolt it up to a torqueflite transmission. He doesnt drive fast anyway so this would be perfect!

[@johnhenry1395]

Would this motor be a decent replacement for the avg V8 in a 1/2 ton (Ford/Chevy/Dodge) pick-up truck and still be able to tow our weekend toys (boat, (two)horse-trailer, car-hauler etc)?? Or should we wait on the tba next Cummins Repower engine? What displacement might that tba motor be?? Thanks!

[@Soph27199]

if you look at it it has about 30-40 less HP (around 160 while a stock 70's 305 is about 200), but I heard they can be relfashed to about 200 HP with obviously more torque (looking at putting it in a 69 GMC)

[@holmes1956O]

scott web horsepower doesnt mean anything in a diesel look at the torque numbers and the torque curve way fatter than gas

This looks like a great kit

[@trailspeed7037]

I wonder how well this would fit in a 2003 trailblazer, put this bad boy in there and find a way to fit a standard transmission behind it and it might not be bad, I know my current setup is pretty efficient, I get 20mpg at 75 mph with a 4l60 and 3.73s I have the vortec 4200 and there’s not too many hills I can’t get up in cruise control, it doesn’t even downshift

You'd need either a gm or jeep transmission & probably an adapter plate. I just priced the motor, adapter plate, and an ax15 jeep 5 speed tranny (no flywheel or transfercase) at 12,327.02. With all the extra fabrication youd need (building motor mounts, tranny crossmember, etc.) I wouldn't sell it for a dime under 20k

[@kevinp5325]

Are there any bell housing adapter kits for the Land Cruiser 80 series yet?

[@CumminsEngines]

Hi, Kal! There are several companies making adapters for this engine. The most common setup we have seen is to use an adapter from the R2.8 to a GM bolt pattern, and then a second adapter from GM to the Toyota transmission. We’d also be surprised if someone hasn’t already (or has one in the works) to go straight from the R2.8 to Toyota. Check out Axis Industries and Advance Adapters (or a quick Google search may highlight some others).

[@johnhull6363]

John Hull why not just get a land cruiser Diesel engine instead, bolt in, last forever and way cheaper.

[@CumminsEngines]

Hi, Chuck! We are working with SEMA Garage to host our 3D models and drawings, but you will need to be a SEMA member to gain access to it.

[@BlackenedBrew]

And unfortunately, that's the problem. SEMA won't let the CAD enthusiast become a member, even if you want to pay the fee. I know quite a few people that would gladly pay the fee to be able to model their favorite rig to build, but because they aren't a business, SEMA won't grant access. Lots of these people (myself included) work in the engineering/design field, and we're used to non-disclosure agreements. I'd gladly sign and abide by a non-disclosure agreement so I could have an actual model to put in the rig (Willy's MB) I'm wanting to build. Even if it's just an outer shell that had motor mount locations, and accessory locations.

[@James-vp2jn]

You can have the engine scanned and turned into a 3D model. Faro Measurement Systems makes a scanner.
