    Please advise as to what fuel system each is using. Certian fuel systems gave more issues than others. I always liked the qsm11, common rail. Good engine, lots of power, and cummins will make a ecu program specific for your aplication.

    Being tier 2 and 3, those would all be mechanical bosch systems except for the QSBwhich would be commonrail, the 855 which would be PT pump and the M11 with its electonics. Theyre all pretty darn good engines. But none of them would be marketable in north america.

    why cant they be sold in the NA? because of the EPA?
