Comments needed on a Bluebird puller conversion
In Cummins, the 5.9 is most likely the 6BT-5.9. If it is aftercooled it is the
6BTA-5.9.
(6= cylinders, 'B' =engine series, 'T' = turbo, 'A' = aftercooled, 5.9 =
displacement)
A very common engine, typically rated at 160hp without the aftercooler.
These were common in many medium duty trucks, and in many late 80's motorhomes.
but the vast majority were aftercooled, from 175+ hp. This engine later gained a
24valve head and was renamed 9with many other upgrades) the 'ISC'.

So...first, does anybody know exactly which motor this might be and know
anything about it's reliability?
Anybody know anything about this drivetrain and gearing options?
