I doubt that thing would fit in a K30 - it's effing HUGE! Weight is about 3000pounds on those. It's made by Cummins, but a 6BT it's not...

Uh, no. It's 61" long, 31" wide and 52" tall. According to my books, he's right it weighs 2900lbs. 855 cubic inch displacement. Anywhere from 220-450hp @ 2100rpm.

In other words it's a Semi truck engine.

yea, that is the cummins out of the M818 5-ton 6x6. not a small engine. Not a 6bt.

6bt's have individual valve covers that are a dead give away.

i have always wanted a multifuel engine to put in something, but they are waay to heavy as well. (But the block, crank, and rods are all chromemoly)

how much is that worth in scap then? lol starting bid is 150 bucks.

It's missing a flywheel housing too. That's a $400 piece. I just bought one for a customer truck. Non turbocharged, too. Another nail in its coffin.
