    • 5.9 L 24V Cummins Long Blocks (1998–2002)

    If you are rebuilding a 1998-2002 Dodge Ram or replacing a worn 24-valve Cummins engine, our 5.9L 24V Cummins long blocks for 1998-2002 trucks provide a reliable and more complete engine solution. A long block is a strong choice when you need more than a short block and want a fully assembled top-end included. This helps reduce parts transfer, speeds up installation, and gives you a dependable foundation for stock replacement, towing, work trucks, and performance builds.

    Compared to a short block, a 5.9 Cummins long block includes the cylinder head and valvetrain components, making it a better option when your top-end parts are worn, damaged, or no longer worth reusing. It offers a balance between cost and convenience, giving you a more complete engine without stepping up to a full crate engine. Whether you're restoring a second-gen Dodge, upgrading a daily driver, or building a reliable tow rig, CPP Diesel helps simplify the process with quality Cummins engine options and real diesel experience.

    Shop our 1998-2002 5.9L 24V Cummins long blocks below and choose the configuration that fits your project. If you are looking for a lower-cost bottom-end solution, compare our 5.9L 24V Cummins short blocks. For more complete drop-in options across multiple generations, explore our reman Cummins engine options to find the right setup for your truck and budget.

    What Comes In A 5.9 Cummins Long Block?

    A 5.9 Cummins long block typically includes the engine block, crankshaft, pistons, bearings, cylinder head, and valvetrain components, professionally assembled and ready for installation. This provides a more complete engine package than a short block, while still allowing flexibility for accessories, fuel system components, turbochargers, and other external parts. For many builds, a long block offers the ideal balance between cost, simplicity, and long-term reliability.

    Long Block Vs Short Block Cummins Engines

    A long block includes both the bottom end and the cylinder head assembly, while a short block only includes the lower-end rotating assembly. If your head or valvetrain components are worn or questionable, a long block is typically the better choice because it reduces installation time and minimizes the need for additional parts. If your top-end components are still in good condition and you want to reduce cost, a short block may be the better option.
