My 3406 is just 350 Hp. Yes it can be increased. but with so much torque
I have not needed any more Hp.

Re: WHICH ENGINE???
Ahoy, Eagles,
I installed a Cummins M-11 in my -01 Eagle. I'm very pleased with it, but I wish that it had the SAE J-1939 protocol plug (like the ISM) so that I could install an Autoshift transmission.
I suspect that any of the modern engines are very adequate for the moderate service and miles that we put on our Eagles.
Happy New Year /s/ Bob

Re: WHICH ENGINE???
Can anyone tell me where I might find an ISM engine these days??? I need the complete truck if possible. I checked with the guy in UTAH...NO LUCK. I also checked with Richard Kerns Truck Parts, he only want to sell me an engine with an equal core. Please advise A.S.A.P. I have someone who will do the job and I want to hurry before he change his mind!!!
