Ok so it's not a dodge, but at least it's a cummins ![Wink](https://dodgeforum.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
I picked up a brand new Bus Chassis from the Bluebird auction when the factory shut down, and decided to build myself a motorhome for traveling with the family for my son's motocross racing, anyway, the bus had a whimpy POS 410hp Caterpillar in it......... I took it for a drive and decided that Cat C13 had to go. So I bought a brand new Cummins ISX 600HP engine to swap out the Cat.
The Cummins was a DPF/EGR engine........... but I took care of that problem with a custom delete kit
and had the computer reprogramed to 700HP

At first I was excited about having this Caterpillar.
