    Which one you would rather buy? I have seen the pre-emission Cummins ISX in a few Volvo's 2005 and pre-emission Detroit 14L(NO EGR) in Coronado and Columbia's. Both are very rare, but they exist.

    Id go Detroit 12.7L, ive no experience with the 14.
    Run from the ISX, we have 2 of them are 2005's 475 w/egr- both ours are drama, fuel pigs and known for "windowing" blocks.

    Detroit made a non-egr Series 60 14l from 2000-2002.

    Detroit has nothing to do with ISX. ISX is Cummins engine

    I 've never seen them...if you say it was 2000-2002 than that's not a epa04 14l.. I mean that engine does not have updated grear train, n3 injectors, one piece pistons the big turbo..
