Cummins ISL 400

We have a HME truck chassis with an ISL 400 and Allison auto and was wondering if the computer can be programed to govern the speed at 65mph and how to go about doing it.

take it to a Cummins Dealer or Distributor and they can hook up Insite to it and set the speed in Features and Parameter to whatever speed you want.

How fast does the apparatus go in high gear now? Most fire apparatus has really low rear end gearing so they can accelerate going up hill, the down side is limited top end.

Ok then as Smkndzl stated, If you have a Cummins dealer ask them to set the road speed limit to 65 mph. It will take them all of 2 minutes to do it. As a side note any large truck dealer that sells Cummins engines in their trucks can do this.
