I know you have mentioned that once before I belive you 100% .. you just seem to be 1 of a handfull of guys that have had good luck .. I'am glad you have .. I just seem to run in to a fair amount of guys that don't .. I have a friend that just spent 55k having a ISX rebuilt by a good shop in Des Moines.. I think his is a 2013
Like I mentioned early I did a engine swap on a 2011.. 388 that ISX that maybe could of been rebuilt but he had issues with it for the last 5 years and was done dealing with that motor.. I put a used Acert from Vander Haggs in it with 6 mth warranty and paper work showing it had 280k on a Platinum Oh gave 23k for it when I was done the total bill was 38,800 dollars .. now mind ya my labor bill was 4k of that which would I do it again for 4k .. No.. it would be closer to 6k if somebody walked in off the street
Looking to replace a blown isx15 with a used motor

I'm not up on Cummins but the CPL shouldn't make much, if any difference.
Unless I'm mistaken, the CPL number is just the list of parts used in the engine. If you're swapping a CM2350 with another CM2350 I would think it should be more or less a direct swap other than some ECM programming (which is inevitable).
If I'm wrong I'll definitely be corrected by someone.D.Tibbitt and Movingismylifeilovemoving Thank this. -
IDK how you feel about a Detroit
But if you find the right shop that would do what needs done .. you might be able to find a decent use Detroit and swap out the ISX for a reasonable amount that would be cheaper than a new motorLast edited by a moderator: Apr 27, 2023
