What Is a 5.9 Cummins Long Block?

A 5.9 Cummins long block is the core engine assembly. It typically includes the engine block, crankshaft, connecting rods, pistons, camshaft, cylinder head, and valvetrain components. A long block does not usually include external accessories such as turbochargers, injectors, fuel systems, manifolds, sensors, wiring, or electronics.

For many 2003-2007 Dodge Ram Cummins owners, replacing the engine with a long block is faster and more cost-effective than rebuilding a severely damaged engine from scratch. A properly built long block gives you a fresh foundation while allowing you to reuse or upgrade your external components.
