Cummins Takeout Engines – Budget Diesel Swaps

Cummins Takeout Engines – Budget-Friendly Diesel Power

Looking for a cost-effective alternative to a remanufactured engine? Our Cummins takeout engines offer a reliable solution for budget-conscious builders and repair shops. These engines are carefully pulled from running, low-mileage trucks and equipment, then inspected for quality and resale.

Whether you're replacing a failed engine, doing a diesel swap, or building a project vehicle, a Cummins takeout engine can provide exceptional value. Most are sourced from Dodge Ram trucks and commercial applications, featuring trusted engines like the 5.9L 12-valve, 24-valve VP44, and common rail 6.7L variants.

At CPP Diesel, we take pride in providing only clean, tested, and thoroughly inspected takeout engines so you can get back on the road or back to work with confidence.
