Would there be an advantage in running an industrial cummins block if a guy were building a high hp engine?
The industrial block looks way stronger than my 97 block just from looking at how its build.i talked to cummins about this they said there is no difference in the two. they said they use the same block.
you not looking for an "industrial" block....
your looking for a block that has the International Diamond cast into it.... the IH cast blocks... do a google search.....
friend of mine pulled one out of his 97... i got an IH head out of the wreckers.
From what I have seen, the "IH" heads are about the same as anything else, I have one on a mild 2.6 truck that cracked.$.02
Ok I should be fine.
I would say either one as long as it isn't a 53 block, put a girdle on it and you won't have to worry.
