Cummins engines getting bigger?
Cummins engines getting bigger?
Went out and worked on a Skytrack today. It had a B series cummins 4 cylinder (4BT) with a displacement of 4.7 litres!
From what I have found out so far it looke like the 3.9 is gone and has been replaced with a 4.7
I'm wondering if the 5.9l 6 cylinder is next.
at .2l/ cylinder increase, if we extrapolated that to the 6 cyl, that would mean we would have a 7.1l 6BT. One can only hope.
Anyone out there know something else about this? I'm definitely all ears and excited.

Well, i wasn't far off. I'm kinda thinking i want to get my hands on the 4.7 4BT. The one I looked at was made for varying RPM's up to 2600 redline. Unfortunately it only made 110 HP. But with what looked to be a baby VP44(2 lines missing) and electronics, it may accept an edge box
Thanks for the link, now i really have something to be excited about.

Case still has the 4 cyl in the MXU series , there is a common rail version , and a lower hp mechanical injection version, the bigger MXU's use the 6.7 , also depending on model some have common rail , some have mechanical injection.
you are right, it is a 4.5l
The data tag reads...
DOM 04/oct/05 Cust Spec 8262162
275/4.5 Model ?SB4.5
CPL 8401 Serial 30208737
110 HP @ 2500
The ? after the model # is because that letter was illegible.
This was not a common rail engine (wish it was), Instead it was a VP-electronic- pumped engine with a mechanical fuel pump. Kinda an odd configuration but it seems to work well.
