Ford or Dodge 1993

Hello
what do you think of the ford 6.9IDI compared to the cummins 5.9
I would like to buy an 88-93
thank you

I've had both. Would pick the 6BT every time. Make sure it has overdrive. Intercooler matters less than it's cracked up to be.

Either one will run WMO, so I'm cool with that. No offense to my dodge friends, but my quaint saying about the Cummins is this: "the biggest problem with a Cummins engine is the Dodge wrapped around it". But that's obviously my opinion.

Lets see
Real truck engine vs real combine engine......

A distant last resort after the ford idi... Jmho.

I like both, the cummins in a ford would be hard to pass up though

That's a big $$$ option.
